Pros
* Extremely fast environment * good place for HOURLY employees * outstanding office areas * free daily lunches to a selected few (chosen by owner) * market driven (if this is a pro) * great collaboration amongst regular employees * outstanding customer service and delivery options of goods * very dedicated and hard working hourly employees * good bonuses selected personally by owner/President
Cons
* Upper management requires immediate supervisory and basic management training * Super micro-managed by President/Owner/Founder Scott Thomas, which is run by him and NOT by the CEO Michael Haynes. * Michael Haynes, CEO is a bright executive, but also him does not foster external training, it's all upon the employee to find what's required for him/her * President/owner has attacks the self-respect of other in front of peers. This applies to VP's and Director's as well - VERY EMBARRASING, to say the least. He has even embarrassed the CEO in front of employees and suppliers! * Lots of "brown nose's" (in management) * No formal training to exempts or hourly's, not even HR training * It is what the President/Owner says and NOT what the CEO or HR say/recommend * VP's do not last; even the HR VP resigned after 13+ months (demotivating factor to many of us who love this company and see our supervisors struggle and be demotivated and insulted in front of us by the owner/president) * NO empowerment of upper management * NO alignment of common goals amongst management * NO "Performance Reviews", which are true to its cause * NO written/measurable objectives, which are tracked
