Pros

It is a very employee friendly environment with numerous resources to assist in being successful at any level.

Cons

NBH uses technical resources to keep you up to date on current sales and market conditions and in addition to communications from departments it can be overwhelming in some cases.

Thank you for your perspective of the friendly environment at NB Handy. As a family-owned company, we strive to do everything possible to make sure our employees feel like they are part of a supportive cohort dedicated to our individual and collective success. We pride ourselves on strong technical competencies throughout all our teams, and gather numerous resources so we can stay abreast of the newest developments and product offerings in our industry. This way, we can serve as consultant partners with our customers and help them grow their businesses. We encourage you to work with your manager to best determine which communications are crucial for you to assimilate into your sales strategy, which may be briefly skimmed for important content, and which are simply optional to review as time permits.

Thanks for your feedback and years of service with us! We are truly fortunate to have so many great people working at Handy Distribution. When it comes to keeping benefit costs low, we work closely with a benefits consultant who reviews market data each year to ensure we offer the most competitive rates. We also offer two healthcare plan options, one of which is a Consumer Driven Healthcare Plan (CDHP). This plan design is a little different from our Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plan and requires enrollment in a Health Savings Account (HSA), but it has lower premiums. In addition, we offer a wellness program where employees can receive a credit toward their healthcare premiums, providing preventive care services or activities are completed. Regarding advancement and promotional opportunities, this if often very competitive but we do our best to allow for upward mobility to all employees through succession planning or career pathing. Trust & Integrity is one of our key core values we adhere to. We lead with doing what’s right with honesty and transparency.
