Pros

Training budget has improved over the years and safety is taken seriously.

Cons

Extreme micromanaging, office staff have glorified perks while field workers are pushed like slaves, no more Christmas parties or team building, salaries barely on par with average, local upper management afraid to stand up to corporate management, sales/profit margins put forth by corporate are NOT attainable so bonuses are kept to a minimum IF even considered, ALL staff is expected to be available 24/7, upper mgt. runs like a "good old boys club", everyone is nice to your face but stabs you in the back when you're not around, health insurance package is the cheapest they could find with high deductibles/out of pocket, have to jump through hoops to run to Home Depot if you need additional installation materials, install guys are labeled "field warriors" to make them feel good rather than showing true appreciation, warehouse and warehouse staff VERY disorganized, specs on jobsites never met 100%, everyone is always pointing fingers, sales team never gives enough time/labor on projects, sales team in general are two-faced (watch your back), the company "culture" is almost cult-like, and overall camaraderie is just not there.

Pros

Good culture for the most part. Decent pay. Good leadership mostly. Bad management tends to get weeded out eventually.

Cons

Culture can vary, depending on who's in charge/office location, etc.

Pros

•Work life balance was good (probably because it was hourly), always worked no more than 40 hours a week •Coworkers after rebranding and who werent management were very nice to work with •Fun and Laughter day with $100 reimbursed

Cons

•Extremely outdated softwares •"Good old boys club" culture •Management advocated for micromanaging, didn't help with career growth even when pushing for it, and were either too emotionally charged/biased or did not care at all •Have seen so many HR violations including putting lives of employees at risk and harassment, yet not even the managers wanted to address the issues unless it was about being "Away" on teams. They discourage camaraderie and encourage work politics and throwing people under the bus
