Thank you for your comments and review! We are considering the option to co-locate IT help desk personnel, but in the meantime we are increasing our IT help desk by 50% to decrease wait times and increase the level of service. We will continue to monitor it in 2017. With Gratitude, Robert Chadwell

Pros

I learned a lot from working at chadwell. The people are great and I made friends for life. With a plan and some research, you can help improve the company and they will listen. Most of the big bosses are really cool too. I enjoyed working for the chadwells and I think they're great people.

Cons

There is this weird hierachy there where the owners are religious and the warehouse is.....well.... let's just say I'm in IT and I had to go under desks to fix things and warehouse jokes were there. A little sexist down there to the point where, as a military veteran I was feeling a little uncomfortable. There is managment that clearly have no idea what's going on and it seems like some of the hiring was done because they went to the same church rather than on the merit that they would bring to the company. Oh and one more thing....the emails that are only pointed to the females about how they should dress should probably not happen. If HR has an issue with the way a female is dressing it should be taken up on a one on one basis. Not sending an email to only the women. I asked around. None of the men got any dress code violations emails.

Pros

Chadwell Supply is a great place to work for many reasons which makes it difficult to leave. The environment is very comfortable. More than likely you are not just a number. The dress code is relaxed which makes it very nice. If you are good at your job you don't have much to worry about except for advancement. There is only so far you can go with this company.

Cons

If you want to advance you are in the wrong company. I am one that likes to grow within a company but there is only so far you can go until you hit a wall and can't go any further, it's hard for a family ran business to let outsiders in for higher up positions unless you started with the company from day one. Operations department in this company is way to small for the size of company it is today. PTO is horrible, everything is combined into one, sick time, personal time and vacation time. Hopefully you don't get sick and have a vacation planned all in the same year. This definitely is something that is a negative in this company. Benefits are also not very impressive but as started before the environment of the company makes it hard to want to leave.

Thank you for your review and comments! You are right about the PTO policy needing to change. I wrote our original policy and it wasn't very good. We are working on a new policy as part of our 2017 Employee Handbook which should be much better. We hope that our continued expansion efforts will increase the amount of promotion opportunities in the company, and we are always on the lookout to help star performers reach their career goals.
