This company is a poisonous leech.

Pros

The people are amazing. At this company, I've worked with some of the greatest people, people who work hard and are honest and who made working here bearable.

Cons

Everything other than the co-workers. The board is selfish. They did huge layoffs this year and thus expect a very small team to produce the same results. Everyone is severely overworked and underpaid in the warehouse, and even some of those in corporate are having the life sucked out of them. It is deplorable. I know of people who have worked here and been injured, and never received workman's compensation for time they were unable to work. HR is ineffective and evidently uncaring; employee safety is clearly not a priority. I could give dozens of examples, of broken stepladders not being replaced, of new employees not receiving proper safety training, of harassment from superiors not being addressed or even investigated.

Pros

Some good people and they are close to the freeway!

Cons

The CEO has the worst leadership skills. He either choses not to remember or forgets conversations, constantly changes direction and has no clear focus. Will not take responsibility for bad management and mistakes, but blames it and takes it out on everyone else. Very litigious company, involved in lawsuits, sues past employees, etc. STAY AWAY!!!

Pros

Company HAD potential at one point. There are some good employees that have worked there a long time, but unfortunately they are overlooked.

Cons

Complete disaster of a company. There is no real leadership. The CEO needs to get out of his office and work instead of placing blame on others for his mistakes. As others have stated, there is a lot of nepotism. Customer service and delivery are horrible with no solution in sight. Avoid this company at all costs. If I could give less than 1 star I would.
