Pros

Family oriented. Current leadership is working hard to improve employee engagement and I think they are on the right track, but it is a slow process. Stable employment.

Cons

Clerical work constantly pushed up to exempt staff, micro management of in office staff, limited opportunity for advancement, old boys network and nepotism predominate, pay less than market.

Pros

Excellent managers and above! Great freedom in doing job! Internal programs for advancement. Guidelines to follow with use of alternate parts, etc, however, no iron fists to save 5 or 10 cents. Drive to treat customers how they want to be treated. Not a cookie cutter, one fits all approach. Customers are to a high percentage Farmers, contractor, business owners and easy to work with. Each day offers great variety! Few meetings. Outside co workers are nice group. It is really very easy to work independently to get job done. They do not micromanage workday! Small bonus at thanksgiving! Excellent health insurance benefits

Cons

You will improve typing skills, lots of reporting and repetition. Several computer systems. Start at 2 weeks vacation with a slow increase. Company logo wear is not provided - ever, and very expensive to purchase. To advance with company you must work in Grinnell. Year end bonus tied directly to 3 measures, no bonus for several years.
