Pros

Very laid back company, allows you to make your own schedule, events and unique ideas come to fruition.

Cons

Very unorganized. Getting much better, but general lack of organization is apparent.

Thanks so much for your feedback! Since the company was purchased in November 2014, we’ve enjoyed some pretty amazing growth and a lot of new opportunities. With those opportunities, we’ve changed our focus and done so quickly. Admittedly, we understand that we need more formality and structure and trust us, we’re working on it and all employees will start to see the fruit of this labor in the coming months. In the interim, we encourage you to reach out to your manager and share ideas of ways to make the company better. We’re here and listening!

Thanks for sharing your comments! We’re very proud to see that you were happy with our compensation package and the awesome employees that you worked with during your tenure. We’re always trying to learn and grow as a company to become even better and a great place to work. We’re always listening to our employees (and reviews like this) and appreciate their feedback. To that end, we’re creating a number of initiatives to increase employee engagement and to communicate the many moving (and exciting) changes of our business in a clear and consistent manner. Rest assured that although you may no longer be with the company, your feedback has not fallen on deaf ears and we’re working hard on our end. Thanks again for your thoughts.

First and foremost, thanks so much for you many years of service at Pabst! During your tenure, we’re sure that you experienced some highs and lows. That said, we’re feeling pretty good that we’re experiencing some great highs as a company right now. Our new ownership has invested heavily in our people and our brands since November 2014 and we’re now starting to enjoy the payoff. In 2015, the company enjoyed 21% year over year growth while most beer companies were in single digits! We’re evaluating our family of brands and have included new products to diversify our portfolio such as Not Your Father’s Root Beer, Woodchuck Cider and Tsingtao. We’re not stopping there and we’ll continue our innovations and partnerships in 2016. Stay tuned!
