Horrible company ti work for

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay is above average The building is fairly clean I really can't think of anything else. This is one of the worst places I have ever worked.

Cons

Everything other than pay is a con. Management treats people with little to no respect. The HR department is a joke. It is comprised of stuck up women that have no prior HR experience but belittle employees every chance they get. The culture of this company is seriously flawed. I highly recommend everyone avoids working here until issues are straightened out. This company is growing to fast and it is unable to manage it's growth properly. They can't even staff for current needs let alone expansion because turn over is too high.

Company management just lying everywhere. There's no respect and owners don't care about employees at all. Beware.

Pros

Good starting pay and benefits.

Cons

Everything else. Child breaks an arm? Too bad, go to work. Your wife is in the hospital? Too bad, go to work. There is no work/ life balance. They are heartless and have no compassion for their lower level employees.
