Dead end job

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The pay was a decent starting rate Some co-workers were great people The work itself was not boring and made the day go by quicker

Cons

Dead end job, nearly 3 years there and no raise or advancement opps Supervisor not very polite, money-driven and not personable Structure was a mess, project build books and schematics we used were often very wrong and were never corrected even after bringing issues up Favoritism is rampant, many workers were not required to do menial tasks while others were Some workers basically sat there looking into space the whole day or part of it but were never called out on it Tools were given to certain people but not others, tool shortages were rarely addressed, many workers had tons of tools and were possessive about them like they owned them (which they did not) Many of the higher-ups think that they own the workers and treated them like cattle to herd and there was a true lack of respect at times

Pros

My paycheck didn't bounce ....

Cons

Everything about this company. Upper management "leads" by intimidation. No focus on training or employees. You are expecting to work 12+hours a day even though the preach work life balance. The company is being ran into the ground. If you are going to interview ask for the last results of the employee engagement survey! That will show you that you do not want to work for Wesco.

Poor communication, little to no hr presence, dysfunctional management, poor hiring practices, upper level staff is unprofessional with entry level staff, poor retirement match, uneven distribution of work, and little to no raises for longevity at entry level.
