Pros

As I write this review, the corporate office is hosting a Mardi Gras themed lunch party to celebrate our achievements in charitable contributions for 2016. Bonus checks for all employees are being paid out this Friday and last Friday the company sponsored a ski trip and allowed employees to make up time during the week to leave early that day to attend. Its not uncommon for things like this to be happening across the company and that's just a snapshot. You're expected to work hard but I don't think any company's senior management wouldn't expect that. There's a great deal of us who think LPC is an awesome place to work and its frustrating to see some of the negative reviews that have been posted recently.

Cons

Everything feels like an urgent fire drill and there's often a cover yourself type of mentality in email correspondence.

We really appreciate this feedback and couldn't agree more! The engagement of our employees is one of the most important focus areas of Lassonde Pappas. Whether its the Mardi Gras lunch, and ice cream social, of Summer Flex hours, we truly want to make this a great place to work and its comments like these that make us feel that we're moving in the right direction. Thanks for taking the time to share!

Pros

This is a great place to work. Is is a fast paced, dynamic environment. There are consistent changes to meet the needs of the employees. Including jeans every day, summer hours, significant individual development programs, social responsibility campaigns, a promote from within policy, monthly employee events, and monthly all employee town halls where you can ask the CEO whatever you want (where he gives hockey tickets away to the best question). Recently the company was nominated as one of the best companies in NJ. This company keeps growing and it has an engaged work force. The issue with Glass door is it is a place for a small minority of either current or past employees who have a gripe to make up and exaggerate their experiences. This is not a place for folks who want to work their 8 without caring or having passion for what they do. If you want to work for a growing company, that cares for its employees then this is the place for you.

Cons

Sometimes we try to do too much. Stay focused on the path forward. Stop doing the nice to do tasks.
