Not as good as it used to be

Pros

Good pay, good bonuses- though they have restructured how they give their pay/ bonus starting 2019, so not as generous. So ?

Cons

The culture is quickly changing for the bad. With Sam getting old, they are passing a lot of mgmt of the company to a family member who is making things very corporate. They also fire people on a dime, regardless of being there for many years. All they tell people is it’s an isolated event (which generally makes no sense with a trusted employee that has been there 3-15 yrs). It creates a fearful, untrustworthy, and not supportive environment.

Going downhill

Pros

Room for growth. Interesting things to work on. Great people to work WITH. Good benefits. As far as senior management goes, the CEO, Mark Sotir and CFO, Philip Tinkler are great people to work with. They are respectful and understanding of everyone, not just those we are "higher up the food chain." Everyone else I worked with at a lower lever in the corporation are all wonderful people that made coming to the office every day enjoyable.

Cons

After spending a good amount of time working for this company, I come to realize that there are a lot of back-end secrets. They talk a lot about open communication but fail to openly communicate with employees. New management came in with no knowledge or background to current situations, trying to fix what isn't necessarily broken while unwilling to listen to input and feedback. Pay is decent but certain positions are underpaid in comparison the average salary. Covid has really brought to light how little they care about employee health and safety. It's all about being in the office when jobs can be done remotely to better promote health and safety during spikes in cases. They are not flexible or understanding with wfh, this is a fully in-person/in-office job, even through the height of Covid. However, if you're lucky enough to be one of the office favorites, you can do as you please while the rest of us are not given a choice and must be present in the office.

Pros

Elite level product. Friendly coworkers who do their best with what they are given. Good benefits and a couple of other small perks.

Cons

Small company so there is not much upward mobility. Management is very good at dealing with the outside world (customers, dealers, media) but they have no management in place to to get the most out of the internal workforce. Decisions and ideas progress agonizingly slowly.
