Pros

The location is very close to the belt-line so that can help with the commute.

Cons

There is literally no reason to come to work for this company and it is a tremendous shame how toxic the culture became in such a short period of time. A short list of some of things that have happened in the recent past include: 1) As mentioned in other reviews, benefits / bonuses continue to shrink or become eliminated. This has occurred at the same time of increasing growth and improved earnings and during a successful sale of the organization to new ownership. 2) Sr. Leadership meetings regularly devolve into temper tantrums. If results are not where they should be, you will very likely be insulted and cursed at. In one instance, I witnessed an executive throw their computer. The rest of the leadership team generally looks at the floor, trying to avoid eye contact rather than become a target. Do not expect to get much assistance or resources to get goals back on track either. 3) When hired, you are required to provide proof of current salary. This is to ensure that Springs does not "overpay" for talent. This should be the first reminder of your value to the organization. 4) Employees are fairly regularly terminated with little to no notice. The company is fond of conducting job searches in private so they have backups ready to go. Severance policies have effectively been discontinued. 5) Personally, I was once called and brow beaten by a Sr. Leader for failing to update a non-time sensitive action item. I took this phone call while sitting in the ER with a loved one. And the Sr. Leader knew that was where I was at because they were with me when I had to leave work early. But they were afraid of being on the receiving end of a temper tantrum so I got it first. 6) Expect to be micro-managed until you decide to leave. Only the most Sr. Leaders have any decision authority. Middle and junior managers will spend most of their time updating reports and attempting to blame-shift / cover their rear so they can avoid the inevitable meltdown. Believe it or not, this is a short list. As I said in the beginning, there is literally zero good reason to work for Springs until the culture changes. Take less money / demotion and work somewhere else. It is not worth it.

Pros

Management is turning things around! Great parental leave benefits, great health benefits, company car. Management wants to do the right thing by employees and consumers. Culture is becoming a strong point. great teammates and customers. Job is fun most of the time.

Cons

- cross functional communication could be better- but it’s known and is a work in progress. - new brands getting handed to reps, but training in those brands and support for reps is lacking. - the role has a lot of problem resolution in the field and sometimes resolving issues can take time (especially with motors, quantity orders, shutters, and softs.

Pros

The company provides stability, a strong product line, and the opportunity to develop deep industry knowledge. Over my 12 years with the organization, I gained valuable experience in customer service, training, knowledge management, onboarding, and operational support. I worked alongside many dedicated coworkers and had opportunities to contribute to projects that improved training effectiveness and operational efficiency.

Cons

Career advancement can be frustratingly slow and lacking in transparency. Employees may find themselves taking on responsibilities far beyond their official role for extended periods without receiving corresponding title changes or compensation adjustments. In my case, I spent months performing duties related to training, LMS administration, knowledge management, onboarding, and project leadership while repeatedly being told that a promotion was coming "soon." Despite consistently delivering results and taking ownership of major initiatives, I was ultimately required to apply for the position I had already been performing. The organization relies heavily on employees who are willing to take initiative, but there can be a significant gap between increased responsibilities and formal recognition. Over time, this can leave employees feeling undervalued, underpaid, and overutilized despite their contributions.
