Pros

At this point the only positive was the F150. I left in January and my branch has had 3 Branch managers. 4 branch managers have quit and or been fired for speaking up on burn out.

Cons

They send an automated response and then nobody knows how to help you. Got hurt on the job, now can't even open a soda bottle. They throw pennies at and the send you packing. Take it or everything will be denied until you give up. Again, they say safety is important, tell you to call their hotline to discuss. You call nobody knows your complaint. The same HR person that took care of my off boarding, my incident review and have called me multiple times in the past, acts like they have no idea who I am. Look at the response beow: Response 2w Safety is a core value, and we treat any concerns regarding the safety of our past and current team members, customers, and community members very seriously. We would like to hear more about the issue and encourage you to share more by reaching out to our HR hotline

Pros

The local teams doing the work in the branches are the only team members that make it a positive experience.

Cons

Senior field leadership and it's byzantine hierarchy is filled with matrixed leadership jobs for people who have been good soldiers with long tenure. They don't know anything about the actual work at the branch level or in the markets. Often they spend thousands at meetings in hotels and at bars in the evening which is extremely unprofessional. These same individuals press their political advantage to make sure the people they don't like get dismissed or marginalized and often move people into leadership to virtue signal DEI values. C-suite has been lost since 2021. Budget forecasting, fleet planning, and execution has been weak and lacks strong leadership position. Geographic territories don't make any sense and regions are oddly divided up based on tenure loyalties and not the needs of the business. Senior leadership can be counted on to work Tuesday - Thursday but have no problem asking front line employees to diminish their salary with 60 hour weeks, and pointless Saturday shifts.
