A supportive company to work for that will educate and train you in all aspects of landscape supplies.
Pros
Ewing has been so encouraging and supportive with training. When I first started, I didn't know how a valve worked or what the parts were even called. Now, I know how to trouble shoot a system, I know all of the technical terms, and I have even taught a few classes on the subject. If you show excitement and motivation in your work, Ewing will give it right back and help you on your career path. The health insurance and profit sharing are very generous. The HR department is the best, super helpful and has even spoke to the health insurance company on my behalf when I was having problems with them. Ewing is a family-owned company and you can tell when you work there, you feel like family, they care about you.
Cons
Starting off, compensation is low, however there are a lot of spiffs and opportunities to earn bonuses, gift cards and earn rewards through vendors and the company. Another con is that you are dealing with the public in a customer service position, and sometimes the public can be difficult to deal with. Multi-tasking is a must have skill, if you don't already have it, you will have to develop it to work at Ewing, you are often doing 17 things at one time.
