Pros

This company is a family operation with a rich history and culture. Hands-on, multi-generational family ownership thrives in a quick paced "get it done" atmosphere. Incredible, consistent growth and stability with endless potential for challenge and opportunity for those willing and capable of seizing it. Though we are not saving lives, we take every task as seriously as if life depends on it. This is great for customers; but can be tough on employees. However, your experience here forces you to raise the bar or fail. My personal achievement gained from being a part of this organization has positioned me for a lifetime of success.

Cons

You do not walk in the door and get treated like a King or Queen. Candidates expecting such entitlement in their employment should keep looking. This is an environment where you prove your capabilities and contributions and then seek compensation.

Pros

The holiday party. Oh wait, it’s on a Tuesday or Wednesday so no one can truly enjoy themselves, so nevermind! Absolutely no pros.

Cons

If I could change one thing in my life, it would be working at Haddad Brands. Coming straight out of college and it being your first job, you truly have no idea how warped working there is. The delusion and greed of the family should be studied-the workload and how they treat their employees is inhumane and honestly disgusting. A crash course is the hours are 8:30-5:30-giving them an extra hour of your life for absolutely no reason. You’re looked down upon if you take a break or step out, even just for a minute. You sit in a jail cell, with no windows, for 9 hours a day-elbow to elbow with the person next to you-and cameras watching and tracking your every move. The Haddads actively work to fire people (don’t be mistaken I wasn’t one of those people-getting a new job was probably one of the best days of my life)-who they consider to be ‘C Class Players’ which is anyone who doesn’t dedicate blood, sweat, tears and overtime to them. All you do is make them money but when it comes time for raises, promotions, benefits etc., they can’t put their money where their mouth is. The work is genuinely not even close to manageable-no matter how hard you work-and everything is under a microscope and scrutiny. The work from home days that have now dwindled into basically zero is laughable and there is no work life balance whatsoever. Just know that if you work at Haddad, you will be worked like a dog-no ifs, ands or buts.
