Pros

Most managers and supervisors are great to work for and with. The people are fantastic. Hard workers, friendly, and pretty cohesive. Small enough to feel like a family but big enough to have some stability & interesting projects. Good teamwork and cooperation across teams and business units. They like to work smarter instead of harder, and while the company is results-driven, the HQ office is pretty laid back overall.

Cons

Going casual dress would be nice. Uncertainty regarding recent proxy bid but seems to be stabilizing. There has been layoffs & turnover due to switching from manufacturing to point of sale, and from buying another company.

Pros

Some teammates others throw you under the bus

Cons

1. Work from home - no reimbursement for internet or company use of PERSONAL cell phone 2. Management who is sexists and if a female has a suggestion it is shot down and torn apart, yet a male makes the same suggestion a week later it’s praised as a great idea 3. Upper management needs to do their research on a person’s background, culture and skills before putting them in a management role... case and point with a specific person’s cultural beliefs: Women are often expected to be obedient as well as not to challenge or disagree with his views. This may work in a different country, but not in the US. Not to mention if you should challenge or disagree, then there is retaliation. YOU DONT LISTEN TO YOUR EMPLOYEES!!! The bring things to your attention and you stick your head in the sand! Some issues are of a very serious nature and either you have incompetent staff to handle it or you truly don’t give a damn about your employees, which is evident in the fact you don’t give any kind of raises for 10 years or more! Cost of living and/or merit increases are standard these days even in the time of COVID-19, so get with the program!
