Pros
There are a ton a passionate and smart co-workers. Decent benefits . Good work life balance.
Cons
Wow . Where to begin. Valassis was relatively recently purchased by a corporate holdings company. It's been a steep decline ever since. You used to be able to live comfortably off of a hard working sales job here but they've recently restructured their commission plan DRASTICALLY to make this a last choice first out of college job at best. 20% payout on a 90% quota hit!? What company does this? It's unheard of. People who have been here 20-30+ years who have mouths to feed are now scrambling to find new jobs. It's not just wrong, it's evil. If this company even exists in 3 years it will just be a place filled with young desperate recent college grads who will jump ship the second they fill up their resume a little bit more or get burned out. Shameful . The rich get richer and everyone else gets poorer. It's not even easy to sell here. We have some of the best products in this industry but absolutely nothing is streamlined in the sales process and everything is overcomplicated to the point where you'll have a migraine dealing with things other companies can take care of in 2 minutes (or wouldn't even have to to begin with). Layoffs have increased ten-fold and come completely out of the blue. No warning. It's awful. There is no feeling comfortable here. Unless you're straight out of college and can't find a job, DO NOT come here. You'll regret it.
