Pros

I've been with Haddad for a long while and never regret working there. It's all comes to very simple rule - put more in and you'll get more out. I've red all these negative reviews, and every single one of them was written by people who was in Haddad for short time. If one expects to just walk in and immediately become a star, don't even bother. This company is for hard working, goal oriented people. Make yourself needed, go beyond your responsibilities, look for better ways to bring the company to the next level, and I guarantee you'll be recognized and well compensated..

Cons

Honestly all the cons I can put down would apply to any company in the industry. Low starting salary - give me other company which pays better for the one right out of college. High price for health insurance - actually there are many companies where you'd pay much more than $300/mo. Two weeks vacation - that could be better.

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.
