Management is opposed to progressing toward the future.
Most of the staff (about 20 people) have been there for 20+ years so there’s no room for advancement until someone retires and even then, there’s no guarantee that you will get promoted.
Mediocrity is welcomed. Have an idea on how to improve a process or make employees happier? Keep it to yourself. Management will ask for ideas but that’s just to make you think they care or to keep you busy.
The President gets in his own way by not taking employee ideas seriously and the tone of the company is “Well, it’s his company so that’s just the way it has to be”.
Customers orders can be delayed due to poor planning or refusal to purchase materials in a timely fashion.
40+ year old company that struggles to move forward with the times. Content with doing things the way they always have.
Arguments between employees happen in the middle of the office and management just closes their door to avoid dealing with confrontation.
