Pros

- During the recruitment and hiring process, "culture" is hammered home and touted as the "secret sauce" - it sounds great, and after 2 years of being here, I can attest to Simpson backing up what they say, culture is greatly respected by all. - The transparency and openness from the top level leadership is second to none. The entire C-suite is open about what is going on within the company and provides clear direction of where we are heading. - The brand Simpson represents is well-respected within the construction industry. Almost all customers appreciate the amount of time we spend coaching them on new products and technology. - Simpson invests heavily in their employees. From orientation, to leadership training to ongoing professional development, they go all-in on their employees.

Cons

- The company is in massive growth mode, which is definitely leading to a higher workload. Management seems aware of this and is trying to balance growth with the needed resources to prevent burnout. - Certain areas of the company can be difficult to work with, however it isn't impossible and it is the exception, not the rule. - It is not a household name for most people, so you may need to explain who you work for.

Pros

I love my coworkers; they brighten my day. Food and lots of food

Cons

The company is unionized, so there are many roadblocks to implementing processes and holding people accountable. When you speak up about gaps, you get crucified and into trouble. Production lags with new management. Training lacks pretty bad The culture has changed over the years; no one cared about Barc's nine principles. That is what people use to say that there is nothing wrong with the company—not true. ISO documentation is lacking; I don't know how we pass. It is hard to promote yourself in a specific role or in other roles. All office positions are hybrid, which means that work-life balance is good. lean is lacking, but then again there's no accountability.
