Pros

Dont work with the public, semi flexible work schedule, payed vacation

Cons

Every year more of the pros go away, no actual oversight or management interaction. Expected to do managements job. Lack of overall information. Terrible training practices employees are often still confused or unprepared for their job because of it. Never hire a new person with enough time to train so current employees are exspected to pick up slack without being told who will pick up the slack. Never a plan for when employees take vacations. Management is condescending treating employees like idiots when asking for clarification. Belittlment by management with off handed comments about employees being grumpy old women or people not being able or want to do things because they are " millennials". Disregard by not only management but HR representatives. Ie; not scheduling exit interviews until the last day and not getting in contact with people for concerns.

This is not the environment we strive for. If you have reached out to local HR and feel they have not addressed your concerns, we encourage you to reach out t our corporate office at 612-607-6400 and ask to speak with the Corporate HR Director.

Pros

Pace had an amazing work environment, the amenities available to employees were far beyond what was necessary for the job. Everyone was extremely friendly and worked well together when group work and collaboration was necessary. Truthfully I was looking forward to working every day being a part of this company! This job helped me realize my passion and helped me decide to attend college for environmental science.

Cons

I personally have nothing negative to say other than the location is quite out of the way for most of the people who worked there. I didn't mind the commute but it was a common topic spoken about in the workplace.

Pros

Good people but all had issues with upper management, and the company entirely.

Cons

Swapped ownership and no longer gives bonuses and, did not address harassment issues seriously enough to resolve it. Due to down sizes 20ish people were let go all who were part time. Injuries were followed with the firing of that person for “unrelated reasons” but seemed odd. I was also asked to do something that did not follow the guidelines I needed to follow incase of forensic use. And employee shouldn’t be asked to go against guidelines and it should have been handled by someone more experienced.
