We appreciate and consider all feedback in efforts to continually become better. That is a key part of the company culture at Fountain... to be open to learning so that we can continually improve and become better. This review uses terminology, such as KPIs, that we do not use in setting performance goals. Fountain wants all their team members to succeed and develop into strong leaders, so we stress with each new hire clear Fountain values, expectations and keys to success which include showing up on time every day, working hard, encouraging two-way communication, and retaining knowledge.

Pros

Home life balance on working hours is fair. Classes are only 1 half day a week and great tool for free to employees.

Starting pay and current is lower end of spectrum. Long travel time back and forth to job site.
