Pros

N.B. Handy Company focuses more on employee's health, happiness, and growth than a standard corporation. The executives listen and try to make accommodations for hard working employees. The pay and benefits are highly competitive!

Cons

N.B. Handy Company is a fast growing company that comes with ongoing change. If you cannot embrace change easily, this could be hard.

We are always very pleased when we receive feedback that our culture drives the company. We’ve worked very diligently to create an environment within NB Handy where everyone is motivated to win. Our Leadership Team focuses on the health, happiness and growth of each individual within our company because we know the health, happiness and growth of the entire Enterprise depends on it! Our executives are always listening, and we have an open-door policy to welcome all of your ideas and concerns. If you prefer to provide anonymous feedback, our “You Share. We Care” survey is available, and every single question and comment is considered and responded to by management. We agree, the pace is fast and that can be hard. Be sure to speak to your manager if you are feeling overwhelmed. Also, take advantage of the Healthy Choice Portal for ideas regarding health and work-life balance and take advantage of our generous PTO program. We will take your consideration to have our teams review management to heart as we create our feedback methods for the coming year. Thank you for your contribution to our success.

Thanks for your feedback and years of service with us! We are truly fortunate to have so many great people working at Handy Distribution. When it comes to keeping benefit costs low, we work closely with a benefits consultant who reviews market data each year to ensure we offer the most competitive rates. We also offer two healthcare plan options, one of which is a Consumer Driven Healthcare Plan (CDHP). This plan design is a little different from our Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plan and requires enrollment in a Health Savings Account (HSA), but it has lower premiums. In addition, we offer a wellness program where employees can receive a credit toward their healthcare premiums, providing preventive care services or activities are completed. Regarding advancement and promotional opportunities, this if often very competitive but we do our best to allow for upward mobility to all employees through succession planning or career pathing. Trust & Integrity is one of our key core values we adhere to. We lead with doing what’s right with honesty and transparency.

Thank you for providing these insights. We’re thrilled about the positive experiences that you’ve shared with us during your career journey so far. It is our desire to give employees the opportunity for growth and development in ways that are mutually beneficial to the individual and company. We also do our best to foster a culture that is welcoming for a wide range of demographics, in hopes of avoiding any sort of negative bias. We are fortunate to offer a flexible work schedule to employees that allows for both in office and remote settings. As we review and uphold telework policies, numerous factors are taken into considerations to support equitable practices, albeit concessions may be permitted for unique scenarios.
