Struggles with Innovation and Culture

Pros

Talented and hardworking employees who genuinely care about customers and each other. Strong long-term client relationships and established industry presence. Company has the resources and potential to grow significantly with the right leadership approach.

Cons

The company struggles with innovation and often relies heavily on existing ideas, legacy processes, and “how we’ve always done it” thinking. While leadership frequently talks about growth, culture, and customer experience, employees face outdated systems, slow decision-making, and excessive layers of approval that make execution difficult. New ideas are verbally encouraged but rarely implemented in meaningful ways. Many decisions remain centralized at the top, which creates bottlenecks, slows progress, and limits ownership across teams. High performers often carry disproportionate workloads during peak seasons, contributing to burnout and turnover. The culture can feel heavily image-driven. The company promotes itself as faith-based, but many employees feel that internal practices do not consistently reflect the values being emphasized publicly. Employee concerns regarding workplace behavior, accountability, and professional development do not always appear to receive the same level of attention as external branding efforts. There also appears to be a significant disconnect between leadership and frontline employees. Communication is often unclear, priorities shift frequently, and feedback from employees closest to the work is not consistently acted upon. Many talented employees eventually leave due to limited growth opportunities, lack of empowerment, or frustration with the overall culture and pace of change.

Pros

Positive work culture with seasonal whole company meals together and regular employee recognition.

Cons

New employee training for office staff is adequate and rushed; filled with internal lingo and too much information to absorb for those new to the market.
