Pros

None really, except the people were awesome even though they are in constant fear of either losing their job or being retaliated against for sticking up for themselves against tyrant leaders.

Cons

Where do I begin? Depending on which office you work for there may not be a lot of cons, but one really is a “delight” Change is promised but never comes. You are asked to give suggestions on how to make the company run a bit more effective and efficiently, and when you do it falls on deaf ears. Many shady practices of you being asked to tell the customer you had carriers when in reality you did not, and then getting in trouble for "lying" to the customer after you were told to do so. One of the supervisors by far one of the worst human beings I have ever worked for. They constantly belittles their subordinates. Takes it upon themself to swear not only at carriers but some of the customers. They feel the need to feed their ego by belittling the others in the office. Morale in that office is way down whenever they are around but runs smooth when they are is not, and there is a more jovial and team atmosphere. Also, if you are a carrier sales rep I hope you like having your loads stolen by another carrier sales rep in the office. Many of the employees want to speak up but know that the “COO’s” open-door policy is complete crap as they just run back and tell what you have told them and you end up humiliated in front of the entire office of 8-9 people. For someone in a management position and who should be looked to as a leader, they lack class and tact. If you must use the “COO” as a “buffer” between you and one of your employees because you were not thought how to talk like a human being, perhaps you don’t belong in a management position. There are no metrics put in place here, which is why this office can seem a bit chaotic at times. If you are ok with borderline racist remarks than this is the place for you. Be prepared to hear different ethnicities talked about and stereotyped, especially if you are Hispanic. Remember folks the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.

Pros

It was nice working there. As long as I did my part of the job, there wasn't any unnecessary assignments or drama.

Cons

Can be a bit boring if you're into a fun, vibrant work space. Could be different now. It's been 2 years since my last employment there.

Pros

-The owner. She has the unique ability to inspire you to be a better person everyday. She has such an amazing background story and outlook on life that you cannot help but feel better after talking with her. I have personally grown immensely as a person since working at New Age and a lot of it has to do with culture she has created here. -The company is committed to growth in a very competitive market. They are willing to do what it takes to adapt in an ever-changing market. -The office space itself is a unique atmosphere. It's not your typical office setting with cubicles. The space is very open and there is communication all around. It is a comfortable work environment. -The employees are seemingly all genuine people and value their relationships with one another. This definitely has something to do with the culture that has been created by the owner over the 27 years she has been in charge. The company hold's itself to high standard's ethically and sticks to it's values and expects employees to do the same. -Company provided benefits (Health Insurance discount, 401k match, profit-sharing) and occasional perks (Catered lunches, company holiday parties, employee of the month rewards)

Cons

-Upper management can sometimes be indecisive on new initiatives and/or direction. It seems they have been improving on this lately though. -At times it can be difficult to get new ideas or suggestions heard or implemented by upper management
