Pros

Benefits are ok, but do not like the health care benefits

Cons

Management does not keep employees up to date on what is going on in the company. Most decisions are made behind closed doors and the lower level employees are not kept up to date. Thought since this was an ESOP company, the employees would be more involved. Moral is very low, but management doesn't seem to care. No transparency unless you are friends with upper management then you get all the latest news while others are just kept in the dark.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. I agree that Caltrol has been in limbo for a bit, waiting for the transition to happen between the previous CEO and the new CEO. To be honest, I'm not sure if the information wasn't shared, or if there simply wasn't information to share, because until our new CEO came on board we didn't have a firm direction. After one month with a new CEO our direction is taking shape!

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.
