Could be a great place to work but has a very, very, very long way to go.
Pros
The bonus is a potential pro but that may be in jeopardy because it happens twice annual but there has been no mention that employees will receive a mid year bonus
Cons
1. There are individuals who are at the management level and they don't have the necessary and/or required experience to be at that level. Most of them got there because they were good friends with the former owner of the company. You should not be made a manager by default you should actually have prior experience to be successful at the position that you have acquired. 2. The company is extremely unorganized and this lack of organization hurts every single one of its employees making it extremely difficult to complete tasks that are assigned to you 3. Management does not trust its employees and it shows. 4. One employee could do the job of about 6 people but the salary does not reflect the enormous and forever growing list of assignments that you are given on a daily basis 5. There are no attempts being made to retain employees, instead every day something is being taking away due to the "financial health" of the company 6. The benefits are lacking. I pay a very high monthly health insurance cost and I don't get half of what I received for paying the same amount at another company. 7. We work 9 to 5:30 because HQ is not willing to compensate for a full 1 hour break. 8. Numerous complaints can be filed against management/individual managers and no action will be taken against the manager in question, They can continue to cause anarchy without disciplinary action. 9. There are not enough opportunities for you to progress professionally. 10. The office culture is extremely rigid and uncompromising. 11. The PTO (vacation days) are lacking, especially when you have to use these same days to cover the times that you are sick or can't make it to work due to poor weather conditions (snowstorms) . 12. if you like to work somewhere where people think outside the box and brilliant ideas are encouraged this is not the place for you. This company runs on the philosophy of "Well, this is how we've always done it" and there are no signs of that changing anytime soon. 13. Burnout, Burnout, Burnout. Employees are not people here, we are robots!
