Pros

The employees are nice typically

Cons

Management is horrible, training is horrible, pay is ok. They treat you friendly for a while but there is a reason their turn over rate is so high. I personally witnessed multiple people being fired, for no other reason than the person above them didn’t like them. Don’t work here unless you absolutely have to, you will end up regretting it later on.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics published the national average turnover rate as 44.3% in a publication October 2019, and of course this was pre-Covid-19. Our turnover rate is 24% and the majority of our turnover is self-elimination by poor performance established by each department's metrics or excessive attendance issues. We simply do not dismiss people because they aren't liked. Furthermore our average tenure is 5 years, which would indicate that your "high turnover" claim is inaccurate. Our training seems to be adequate for those who have been with us and have mastered their roles, so we can only assume if you perceive the training as "horrible" there must have been a disconnect in your capacity to learn from the training provided and you should have communicated that to your manager as we understand that not everyone learns in the same way. We provide a 30, 60, 90 day expectation in each role at hire and rely on individuals to inform their managers if they are not mastering the expected skills. As for your negative remarks towards Christine, that speaks more to the type of individual you are than the type of organization we are. We wish you all the best.

Pros

The people who work here are great. Getting to know them definitely made it difficult to leave.

Cons

Pretty much everything else. When I first started, it seemed like morale was decent, and ownership cared about the company. The longer I was there, the more obvious it became that was not the case. The management team says that they value feedback, and provide employees with feedback, but they don't. They don't want employees to gossip (to the point that they intentionally withhold information - what do you think that makes employees do?!), but then they gossip to and about the employees. They do not let employees know if there is an issue until they've basically already made the decision to terminate them - no corrective action on the employee's part will change their mind. Upper management kept saying that ownership made the worst business decision by hiring friends, replaced them, and then... hired their BFF, who they also live with. Employees do not feel comfortable coming forward with issues because of the relationship. That sort of hypocrisy does not breed trust. Upper management fails to notice the trickle down effect - your employees won't stop gossiping when you are doing that very thing, and they aren't going to want to work for someone they can't trust. It seems as though ownership has lost their passion for the business, and turned over the reins to people who care more about themselves than the people making the business run.

We really appreciate and value your feedback. We have actually made great strides in fixing a number of the issues you brought up, including hiring a Human Resources leader who the employees feel they can speak with openly and honestly. As it pertains to your comments around gossip, the management team values every employee and treats all employees with respect, while we cannot always stop gossip, we do understand that it will happen and do take positive measures to limit it. This pertains to the management staff as well and is dealt with on a case-by-case basis but we need to know it is occurring to make any changes. Our Human Resources department has an open-door policy. Additionally, Right Stuf hires based solely on qualifications of applicants regardless of their status or relationship with co-workers. We have even recently implemented a referral program as we highly encourage friend or family member referrals. We do believe that the Right Stuf is a great place to work!
