One of the few large employers in Hampton Roads.
Svantaggi
If you are a middle-aged guy with basic education and very little experience, but a knack for using jargons, this is the place for you. Not a place for hard-working and smart people. The leadership is mostly made up of home-grown guys working their way up from the counter, who have very little understanding of technology, finances or business practices in general, so decisions are not based on knowledge and facts, but how much they like you, see note about knack for using jargons. Promotions are scarce and almost non-existent, pay and benefits are below the norm for company of that size (except for leadership of course). Overall, if you are lazy, good at schmoozing and downplaying problems, ok dealing with drama and politics all the time, go ahead and apply, you will be just at home at Ferguson.
