Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate the positives you pointed out. We pride ourselves on providing the best benefits we can to our employees. As a small company, career growth may not always come in the form of a promotion but rather by learning new skills and cross training in other departments that our employees are interested in. When the opportunity comes, we prioritize promoting from within when we can. Thank you again for writing a review, we appreciate the feedback. Human Resources

Pros

The workplace environment at Chris King is one of the best. The work life balance is great. Benefits have always been great, especially if you are into cycling. Sets a high standard for manufacturing, focusing not only on quality, but efficiency and environmental impact. Managers provide a great balance of freedom and guidance without micromanaging.

Cons

The pay could be better and in some positions there is little to no room for advancement. Losing the Cafe was a big loss to benefits. Hope it comes back!
