Are you part of the family or a very close friend? No? Well then you can expect to never grow with this company and will likely be made to feel constantly replaceable... because you are. The nepotism here is on a whole new level. I would rate the employee happiness as superficial, as you speak to the more tenured employees more you will find out most of them fear on a daily basis losing their job, feeling defeated and beaten down by management; abuse is common. This is because the management style is micromanaging and unfortunately most of the people in these positions don't have leader qualities. The training program is subpar at best and by the time you are out on your own, don't expect to know what you are doing. Not to fear! Because if you are a management pet you will likely not suffer any consequences for your mistakes. If you aren't, I highly suggest connecting with a tenured employee who is willing to take the time to answer your questions and guide you through processes. If you want to last long and maybe have a chance of moving up in the company, always be a yes man. You will know if you are not liked by management, as they clearly treat you differently from ignoring you as they say hello to everyone to being dismissive of you. When it comes to HR handling issues, I would be very careful to what you say and bring to them. You can expect this will always be handled in an unprofessional manner, your words will likely be twisted, and it will likely always be your fault in the end, additionally there is NO privacy with HR. Which is likely why that position has such high turnover. As for the culture that they push so hard on you, some of it is really great however, you will quickly see how instead of keeping salaries competitive they will spend mountains of money on parties/events for their family and friends and call them work parties. Your workload will be tremendous, and your goals will set you up for failure unless you are lucky enough to have a teammate or some solid accounts passed to you when someone leaves. (again unlikely unless you are in with the family)
