Pros
While Base Salaries are on the low side, company benefits are very competitive. 401K Matching is on par with industry averages. The office is located in La Mirada, CA off the 5 freeway which is freeway close and NOT in Downtown Los Angeles so traffic is typically light.
Cons
Poor Executive Management, Poor Employee Moral, Poor Salary Compensation, Poor Annual Increases (even with an excellent annual review), Poor Employee Purchase Policy - Employees pay full retail to Makita. They make more profit on sales to employees than they do on their customers. Unreasonable expectations on employees that work long hours and weekends for events who are required to use PTO time after working a 24 hour weekend and nearly 6 hours in 4 days. Company claims to be progressive yet they do not utilize ANY modern technologies to streamline processes.
