Great Insurance, Great Parent Corporation, Disappointing Local Management

Business Outlook

Pros

Insurance is very GOOD. Coworkers are decent and at worst tolerable. Corporation is top notch(parent corporation is CRH).

Cons

This is for the Ready Mix side of the company(Fordyce/Century Concrete) Despite advertising that going above and beyond will get you promotions and above average raises, that has not been the case in the last 5 years. All but one manager are either related or relatives of their friends outside of work. Have only ever received a max 3% raise despite having an exceptional review for the last 5 years and meeting goals and quotas given by manager only to have it not given because of another departments failures.
