Thanks for your review! We know LBM Advantage isn't perfect, but we do offer some great benefits. Employees are eligible to work flexible hours if needed (for example, our regular start time is 8:00 am, but some employees start as early as 7:00 am or as late as 9:00 am if that works for their individual needs). LBM Advantage values work-life balance tremendously. Most employees work a regular 40 hour per week schedule, and there is little activity after hours or on weekends with the exception of the occasional travel to one of our shows.

Pros

Excellent pay and longevity for those who play ball.

Cons

The good ol boys club is rampant with very little opportunity or respect for women or people of color. You’re either with them or against them. Most of the long term employees just keep their heads down and collect a paycheck as any complaints are ignored and anyone who steps out of line is labeled a troublemaker and is swiftly removed. Then there is the horrific rumor mill where all manner of false information is circulated endlessly causing reputations to be tarnished as well as bullying and a hostile work environment.

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on our workplace culture. We take comments of dissatisfaction seriously as it has always been LBM Advantage’s goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and inclusive environment. We are also deeply committed to taking legitimate grievances seriously and employees who present issues to HR, our C-suite, and management team will never be ignored. When issues are brought to our attention, a thorough investigation is always involved, and decisions are made based on factual information. LBM Advantage has a history of having very long-term employees and as evidenced by the staff survey findings from our NY State Best Companies award, staff have an overall 89% satisfaction rate. It is rare that employees are released from our organization, and on the rare occasion that we have terminations, it has been related to performance or misconduct, and never due to labeling or rumors. In fact, our Executive team has adamantly discouraged gossip and worked closely with our management team to ensure that unconstrained conversation is kept at bay and positivity and collaboration are a key focus. Maintaining teamwork and building morale is one of many reasons LBM Advantage started their annual Management Leadership conferences. While HR and our Executive team welcome further discussion about the issues you have addressed, if you would prefer to work outside of the internal management team, we would encourage you to reach out to the LBM Advantage Board of Directors to share your concerns and find solutions.
