Pros

Culture, tight knit. Flat hierarcy, access to mamagement, small regional teams make it easy to identify your individual contributions to company success.

Cons

Organization seems hypocritical by instituting a strategic imperative to attract and retain top talent, yet there is no clear path to promotion, senior positions are largely being filled externally, and compensation seems to lag beyond industry averages.

Pros

Local management allowed for autonomy and employees were trusted to do what they needed to do to provide a quality work product. We were given the tools to be successful. The annual bonuses are an excellent benefit of working for this company.

Cons

Upper management did not seem to understand what was going one in the regional offices. The WC Management had unrealistic expectations of what could be done in a normal day and the expectation was that we should work overtime and on weekends to stay caught up. The workloads were crazy.

Pros

Nice commute. Friendly people. Growing company. Senior leaders recognize a need for change to grow in the future. Very loyal workforce. Company strives to do the right thing. The company adds value to the community and truly cares about its customers.

Cons

Culture struggles with growing into a larger enterprise. Senior leadership struggles with letting go and empowering their people. Lower leaders spend most of their time managing up and not enough time leading the people under their stewardship.
