fellow employees and scheduled hours

Benefit premium is high for a company this big. Pay could have been a little better.

Pros

Pizza Fridays and that's about it.

Cons

Antiquated systems, horrible management, cheap with benefits and salaries, scary neighborhood, crappy hours, uncomfortable physical environment, lots of screaming and yelling back and forth amongst employees, no public transportation around. Should I continue?

In 2015 L&R Distributors established uniform job titles, departments, and salary bands and issued a Cost of Living Increase to most employees. In the first quarter of 2016, L&R Distributors launched The L&R Way corporate re-branding initiative, performance appraisals with merit increases, and an Organizational Development program to help all employees develop professionally. Finally, within the next two years, L&R Distributors will be combining the Brooklyn and Long Island locations into one Corporate location. We are working to find a new location that is closer to public transportation.

Pros

None. Unorganized. Poorly managed. Low compensation.

Cons

Terrible benefits package, even HR manager stated the 401K match and health benefits were the worst he had even seen at any company he ever worked for. Unprofessional work environment. Expectations to work without breaks for very low competitive wages/salaries. Beware!

Pros

I have worked for L&R for 11+ years. It's a great company to work for. Everyone is approachable right up to the CEO and the owner. People are happy to help you with things you don't understand. At L&R, mistakes are seen as opportunities to learn. The benefits package is good and the company growth means job security.

Cons

I work in the field and find that sometimes communication is a little slow -regarding changes in policies, etc. While I feel my pay rate is fair, pay raises are small with long intervals in between. I feel it's the only drawback to working here.

Pros

It is remote work, there is little supervision (some may see that as a pro, I personally do not), flexibility with hours (convenient to schedule daytime doctor appointments, etc.)

Cons

The company was bought by an equity firm last year who only seem to care about profits and not their employees. I've watched new people be brought in and hardworking tenured employees be pushed out. The culture has gone downhill tremendously and I get no support in my job. The benefits are not competitive, there is little to no training, there is a lack of defined duties & responsibilities so you end up doing some of everything and the workload is unmanageable. The supervisors have no idea how much work you're doing and I only hear from them when there is a problem/something they need from me. I have been promised promotions a few times and each time I got an increased workload but no actual title/compensation change.
