Pros

Employee-owned (ESOP), good benefits, good work-life balance.

Cons

Management does not involve nor consult subordinates before making critical decisions and will just impose them regardless whether it works for the subordinates or not.

Thank you for taking time to right a review, I am glad to see that you would recommend Caltrol to a friend. At Caltrol we strive to listen to what our employees have to say while it may sometimes look like we do not take employee comments to heart please know that we do and we are continuing to work on making our decision more transparent.

Pros

Standard benefits, hybrid work schedule, in-office company culture is friendly. Work-life balance is good and opportunities to learn during slow times are good. You need to take advantage of it, though.

Cons

Lack of work to do, so layoffs are inevitable at the moment.
