Pros

The acting President is one of the better things about the company. He was appointed after the previous president mysteriously left one day… He has SO much to correct, it may not be possible with the current reporting management staff in place.

Cons

This is they type of place where you come for your first job out of school, get a few months experience, then more on to better company with better pay and compensation. This company has quite a few issues that make it an unattractive career choice. It is extremely management heavy. I have worked at places with too many managers, but at Red Classic I would say there is 1 manager for every 2 employees. There are even managers that don’t manage anything or anyone. This seems to have created an environment of non-transparency and extremely “clickish” groups with emphasis on narcissism, instead of creating one strong company. There are good managers at Red Classic, but they are few and far between. Red Classic does not care if an employee has a “out of the box” idea, because it was not the manager that came up with it. They do not value employees or their input or ideas. You are not treated as a professional. Also, the common business language you hear is “YoYo, What Up” and “Cool”, just to give you and idea of the level of sophistication at Red Classic. There is a lot of animosity towards the Parent company, Coke Consolidated. You constantly hear, “Consolidated does not know what they are doing!”. This is just a recipe for disaster.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. As our company continues to grow, there will always be challenges for leadership to address. As you mentioned, two of the most important are developing our culture and optimizing our structure. Getting these aspects right is very important to our leadership team. The Acting President you mentioned has been confirmed as our President, and he is focused on positioning Red Classic as both the employer and partner of choice. We are looking forward to the coming year as we pursue these objectives together as a team.
