Pros

You can get cheap stuff at the sample sales. There is an excellent food truck in the parking lot.

Cons

There are so too many to mention. The pay is below market average because leadership thinks everyone should be paid "Calhoun" wages. The insurance and benefits are horrible. The CEO forces employees to support foreign charities while not taking care of his own core employees. Also, if you are a young women, some of the department heads treat the workplace like it is a dating service. Very shady treatment.

I'll pass along your compliment on the food truck; We don't hear that often! We know at Surya that we must do a better job planning our compensation ranges to continue to attract top talent. Regarding your charity comment, it is simply untrue. Surya strives to positively impact the environment, society, and the communities in which we operate. Yes, once per year, any employee who chooses to may team up with other colleagues and compete to see who can raise the most money for a charity that helps feed and educate children in India. Surya is also proud to help stock the shelves of the Chattanooga Area Food Bank, which distributes healthy food to residents throughout NW Georgia and Tennessee. We sponsor the Veteran Pain Program, an initiative that provides medical grants to U.S. Military Veterans, and once again this year, Surya will partner with the National Breast Cancer Foundation to help increase awareness of breast cancer and the need for early detection and treatment.
