Pros

The work environment is clean.

Cons

It was very frustrating to work at this company. I had no onboarding but quickly realized I was the only one. The whole place seems to operate with an "every man for themself" mentality. My desk didn't have so much as a pen on it my first day. I was lucky to work in department with friendly people who took my under their wing. Everything was a struggle: trying to understand the companys structure (they have no intranet, or org chart) ,trying to navigate benefits (they had policies in ADP that had no been updated since the late 80's) simply trying to understand my role was a challenge without any best practices in place. I often felt I spent more time trying to figure out how to get something done than I spent actually doing the task at hand.

We are sorry that you had such a negative experience at AstroNova. Your on-boarding experience must have been from some time ago. It certainly does not reflect the current state of our on-boarding and employee services. We have a very active intranet that has been used for several years now to post our monthly newsletters and other relevant company information. All policies and benefits information is updated and easily navigable through the latest version of our ADP system. The global organizational chart with pictures and contact information for every employee is also available to everyone via ADP. We certainly have much more work to do to improve our employee services and engagement, but we are proud of how far we have progressed in the past several years, and it reflects in the majority of feedback that we receive.
