There are none except for a handful of nice coworkers

Cons

Nepotism and incompetence is running rampant. Cheap products made by the lowest bidder.

We received your review and noted you made your review "anonymous" probably due to the fact that you are a current employee. Fair enough. Many reviews note a positive experience with co-workers. Gibson Homewares being a family-owned and operated business is fair game for claims of nepotism. That said, as the next generation of family enters into the company business, from my experience, they are ALL very competent at what they do. They are the company leaders of the future. It makes sense. The company is not putting anyone into a role they cannot do, that would be detrimental to the business. Gibson Homewares makes our products is many different countries, usually in the country where the materials are indigenous for that product. Buy for less, sell for more, that's one way to do business. That business model is still valid. Gibson does promote from within, however that process and timeline varies among individuals. The terms used in your review "worthless people" and "harassment" are indicative of your general dissatisfaction overall.

Pros

I arrived at Gibson in 2017 and since then I've met some great wonderful people here! If you are a good employee and are serious about doing the job and wanting to grow, doors and opportunity will open for you. I have been in 3 different departments here and learned so much in each of them! I am very happy in my current position and look forward to staying with Gibson for many years to come!

Cons

Only thing I can think of is: I wish there was more natural light coming in inside the office, but I understand this is a big building and isn't always possible. You can always use your 15 min break to step outside and get some nice sun and take a fresh breath.

Pros

They offer flexible hours with a positive work environment. From Christmas parties to lunches and raffles celebrating other holidays Gibson makes you feel like not just an employee but part of the "Gibson Family". They appreciate the work you do and reward good job performances with annual salary increases and bonuses.

Cons

I Really can't think of anything
