Acceptable, But Room For Improvement

Inside sales representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great co-workers and small office feel. Easy to work with customer base and exceptional product to represent. Management respects employee longevity.

Cons

Management direction can feel misguided or not helpful towards career growth. Compensation can tend to become stagnate due to positional stagnation. Positional accountability can vary greatly and general expectation to consistently work in company areas outside your current position.

Integrity is just a show around here

Business Outlook

Pros

Compelling location and predictable hours

Cons

New owner lacks integrity, but is a salesman by nature and knows how to say the right things to make people feel good. If you're willing to be part of the boys' club and be in lockstep with the owner, you'll do fine.

Great Long term gig if you're willing. . .

Maintenance technician

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great Maintenance opportunities and job security, you can get any tools you need justifiably purchased for your company toolbox if you need. Great amenities(break room, etc. )

Cons

Training is low, vague, and lacks substance. Promotion levels(3, 4, 5) are based on what you know and how valuable you are yo keep machines running, which you won't know unless you're trained or you know the systems. Most training will be with your co workers, who(not all) more or less gatekeeper information for promotions unless you "earn the respect". There are a lot of rx guys who are there willing to share info, who are incredibly close(less than 5 years) away from retirement who carry a lot or workload. once they're gone, this review will most likely be prophetic or at least amplified.
