Pros

Competitive Pay and Benefits. The performance of the company has been great and reflective in the bonuses. Lots of employee perks - Juice, Jeans, Parties, Pizza, Summer Hours, Wellness programs. The company has won multiple awards for best places in the area to work (in the last year...based on employee reviews!). The company is very focused on growth and employee development. If you are motivated, there are many challenges available and opportunities to move up. I just referred a friend to the company (Proof that I do think it's a great company!)

Cons

Great place for someone building a career. If you are not committed, you may find it challenging and too fast paced. A few disgruntled employees keep bashing the company on Glassdoor (multiple post from the same person clearly evident and a flaw in Glassdoor Website). Not indicative of the employee moral.

Thank you for this wonderful feedback! We believe our amazing talent is what differentiates us as an organization. Our focus on employee growth and development is what has helped us move from a -1 to a 37 in our Employee Net Promoter Score in just 2 short years. However, this couldn't have been possible without active and engaged employees such as yourself. Thanks again for leaving us feedback and for helping us be a great place to work!

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!

Bad place to work

Pros

Free juice and coffee. Summer hours

Cons

Everyone I talk to in the office hates this place. Most of us are looking for other jobs. Management dumps tons of work on us because we don't have enough people and they won't hire more to help. Many of the upper managers will lie to you in order to motivate you. They did that with bonuses last year and do it all the time when trying to make you take extra work. Only suck ups get promoted.
