Pros

The general benefits that the company gives. Flexibility in schedule. The tech pool generally helps out if needed.

Cons

The telling of a end of year bonus that changes to fit the need of whatever the company sees fit. Being told one thing and handed something else. Admin not really going to bat for you. Left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing. Everyone needs your skill set but no payoff for continually helping. Plenty of negative analogies.

Thank you very much for your favorable review of our benefits and flexible schedules. We work hard to make sure our benefits are competitive and also that we can meet the needs of all team members as we realize that flexibility is a benefit as well. Every month we communicate how the company is doing financially against their goals. The Win Together Bonus program was rolled out to support our Win as a Team Value. As you know, the program is based on our performance against our earnings goal so the payout is a percentage based on how well our performance is within a certain range. The more we exceed our goal, the more we can payout to each participate. We communicate how well we are doing monthly to all of our team members as well to keep all informed of our progress. The payout is based on the company success and not individual success. If you are not getting these monthly messages, please let your manager or HRBP know so you can be kept up to date and knowledgeable of how well the company is doing. Thank you again for your review. I wish you many more successful years at Vector Security.

Pros

Pam Petrow does as good of a job to manage the company as she can. Needs to know if issues within branch that goes unaddressed.

Cons

Manager aware of hostile work environment with bullying and harassment and allows it to happen. States he doesn’t know how to change it.Numerous employees have left as a result of 2 employees being allowed to “run” branch instead of manager running it.
