Thank you for the feedback. It’s sad to hear that you don’t see growth - employee development is a key part of our talent management. We recommend approaching your manager during your half year performance meeting to discuss opportunities how to develop your talents and broaden your skill set.

Great culture and company. Low pay.

Pros

The people and culture are great. I really like the people within the organization. Strong belief in work life balance. I like their concern, sensitivity and acknowledgment to social and global issues, and that they try to find ways to support them. You can speak up without fear of retaliation. Management listens to the employees and tried to find ways to make improvements. There is room to grow and they prefer to promote from within the organization. Benefits are good. In terms of corporate culture it’s the best places I’ve ever worked.

Cons

The compensation is really low. Well below average. It is something they are looking to improve. They do not account for cost of living. A lot of people have left in the last year due to low pay. I do still see gender pay gap discrepancies. Marketing is very out of touch with the sales force and what’s going on in the field. Sales requirements change every year, which is frustrating. You’ll spend more time ticking a box to appease investors than you will actually selling something.

Pros

Good Benefits and lots of Overtime

Cons

Mandatory Overtime every week. Advertise balance between home and work which is only true for office personnel. Raises are not competitive and don't amount to much. Worked straight through Covid. Management doesn't care about your home life or you as a person. Supervisors hardly ever hit the floor and processes are supervised by incompetent Operations Techs who use favoritism when it comes to work duties. Great Dane is starting out higher in pay. High turnover rate.
