Pros

Nothing I can think of

Cons

HR policies from the 80's Cameras watch you and if you're not staring at your computer, you get money taken out of your bonus Bonus will get lowered if they think you made too much Upper management hires you to do what they want, they don't consider your opinions or expertise You work hourly, which means you have to clock out for lunch or any doctor appointments you may have and you need to make up those hours

Our bonus fund was designed as an incentive for employees to do the right thing and take care of our customers. Millions of dollars are paid out every year in bonuses and our employees are happy earning the extra income. Our owners and management team are available every day and often ask for employees' opinions on decisions made around the store. The HR policies are standard policies that you would see at any place of employment. The majority of our staff is paid hourly, which again employees are happy about because they get paid overtime for any hours worked above 40. In addition, starting pay for most departments is above industry standard. We have never heard of a company that pays their staff to go to the doctor but we definitely allow our employees the flexibility for appointments, etc. All employees earn Sick Pay and are able to submit these for hours missed due to missed time. We have to be doing something right over here at Abt to be in business for over 86 years and employing over 1,600 people.

Thank you for the feedback. We agree that our employees are great people. We take the time to develop and grow hard working employees and encourage upward mobility within the company. Nearly all of our management positions were promotions from within. We believe the long tenure of our employees speaks for itself and if you have specific feedback or recommendations for management, please feel free to reach out to us directly.

It is ridiculous to think our management would allows this. Of course Abt does not tolerate any type of harassment or discrimination. We have been in business over 85 years and employ over 1,600 staff that rely on Abt Electronics. We would not do anything so foolish to jeopardize the company and staff. We also do not tolerate disgruntled ex-employees trying to tarnish our reputation with false statements and fake reviews.
