Thank you for devoting a significant part of your career to working with us at ELLWOOD. We are honored to have a great many employees who have given not only 10 years, but 20, 30, 40 and even 50+ years of service. Being a family owned and operated business for 110+ years, we have remained an employer of choice, which draws generations of family members from the communities of which we are a part. We have remained in business for all of these years due to our lean operating structure, which has allowed us to navigate business cycles and difficult economies. While we continue to offer a competitive compensation package, unexpected changes are sometimes necessary to weather storms like COVID-19.

Pros

Coworkers are awesome, working conditions are great, business casual attire, no micro managing, supervisors support us

Cons

Compensation changes move very slowly. Even if you have your supervisor on your side, their supervisor, and even THEIR supervisor on your side, there's a bottleneck in upper management somewhere that slows the whole process WAY down. Yearly bumps to accommodate minimum inflation occur routinely, but other changes move at a snail's pace.
