Pros

Some of the employees are amazing! They work way too hard for what they are paid and how they are treated.

Cons

I've seen several reviews saying that Paul and Andrew are crooks and I would have to agree. They do everything they can to line their pockets with money and take away from employees. They went form running a fairly good business a few short years ago to a greedy operation with letting some of the best senior management go and replacing them with inexperienced bobble heads that manage out of fear and treat their employees terribly. Shame on them--we can only hope they sell to an honest operator in the near future and leave the twin cities area. I will never refer anybody to not only work there but not to do any business with them whatsoever.

Pros

Employees are paid weekly and Sundays are a guaranteed day off. There are a few wonderful individuals I met during my time there.

Cons

Walser has a very clique-based atmosphere. It can be quite toxic. So many hard-working individuals were so under-valued. It is clear that sales mean far more than any employee ever can. Nepotism is rampant. I would often see promotions or raises for family members of upper management when it was clear it was not earned or deserved.

Dear former Walser employee - We appreciate the time you worked here, and we're sorry to hear that you do not recommend us. While we do, in some situations, hire family members of employees, there are many measures in place to make sure that they don't report to each other or affect pay or title.

Pros

The only pro is they hire fast. If you are desperate for a job, you got a chance.

Cons

Constant changing of pay plans, lack of communication, too many process changes to implement properly.
