Great Work Life Balance

Pros

I've been able to have a great work-life balance at S-H. S-H has provided a rewarding career, with lots of opportunities for growth without requiring sacrifice of my family time. They are flexible, have consistently shown a high level of trust and have always treated me as a professional. The work environment is great; the people here truly enjoy working together, and I look forward to coming into work most days.

Cons

I can't think of any

Pros

They only pros that I can think of, it is a great place to get your start. They offer a decent wage and have decent benefits. But, you will never get very far with this company. They claim to promote from within, but seldom do, unless you are a stock holder (which Designers will never be)

Cons

The management structure of Shive-Hattery is horrible. The previous CEO, the Office Managers, and the HR Department, are unethical, pre-historic mindset and policies. Department Management claims to support you, but don't when you need it. Company was ran by "self help" book enthusiast, used those principles (forced people to read certain books) but never ran the company with those ideas. They do NOT care about you, your family, or your personal/work life, your health, or your concerns. They do not use employees as assets, they use them more like mules. Do not take suggestions, won't even listen, to ideas. (although, every year they hold a questionnaire, to get feedback from their employees, but nothing ever changes. After you leave the company, be prepared to be black balled, they will go to extremes to see you no longer work in your location, in your field.

Pros

Sooo many employee appreciation and recognition events Flexible in scheduling, emergencies, PTO Opportunities for growth in field and encouragement for growth across departments Undeniably thoughtful and consideration-based culture Outrageous amount of "fun" time Senior Management cares all the way down the line Middle management allows for autonomy

Cons

I wish I could think of something.
