Pros

Such a formative companny, I recommned for entry level and intermediate employees, Well compensated vs other local compannies, Good and diverse environment, and supportive Leadership & employee centric

Cons

Growth and development isn't based on meritocracy but prefrences and who the managers want to push pay gaps between two grades are huge some mangers can create atoxic environment and your only issue os to either report or leave but a lot of people who report through a speak up as part of the sobc end up the ones to leave and it was supposed to be anounymous but evryone hears about them doing it if your direct manager is toxic he can block you from leveling up or even going somwhere else and if you are given a money bonus he can decline it basically it is bad if ur manager is

- Complete autonomy with schedule which provides for a nice balance between work and personal life - Impact people who are trying to grow their careers - Company car and free* gas is pretty nice

Pros

401k, Good deal of vacation time.

Cons

I truly miss working for RJReynolds! Even though its a very large company it still had that small close knit company feel. Now that BAT has taken over it is absolutely MISERABLE working here now. The plant has not shut down on a weekend since they took over and doesn't look like it will anymore as long as BAT is in control. All this company cares about is production and getting tobacco out the door. Employees get promoted to positions they no experience in and have no business at all in working in the positions. The moral is the worst I have ever seen it, you can look at coworkers faces and tell they aren't happy working here anymore. The production employees are miserable due to this plant never shutting down and always running. Work/life balance is very bad. BAT has zero care for American holidays, they wont think twice to "voluntell" employees they need to work on the holiday. Employees are scared to speak up and say anything. Management is all yes people and will not stand up for their employees. I have watched everything get progressively worse and worse as BAT continues running this company. This used to be a company that people enjoyed working until retirement and now its a company that works the employees into the ground.
