Pros
Had a nice coffee machine. I had little to no supervision. Good work/life balance for office workers.
Cons
(Ruston, LA) Way too much turmoil. All white male leadership with an all African American hourly workforce. That, along with normal toxic Union Vs. Management relationships led to a toxic environment. I felt sorry for the union employees. They tried to get better through the union but all it really did was take their money. I think the Ruston site is shut down now. Probably for the best, put it out of its... misery.

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo Opinion of CEOI worked at Franke full-time for more than 8 years
Pros
Free coffee, great people to work with, I made good pay but new employees coming in will not.
Cons
Management changes far too often. Management coming in from the outside and having no idea what you do or what your job is. Management wanting employees to keep their heads down and do as they're told without suggesting a better way or asking questions. Too much office politics and brown-nosing to get ahead. No respect for employees that have been working there for 10 years with no issue. No opportunity for growth... without moving to another company outside of Coffee. Coffee HR is a nightmare, not helpful at all. Having to be on call every 3 weeks.

Good luck keeping your best employees that actually care about their work AND the people they work with. Brown-nosing may look great to everyone above you, but you don't have to negatively effect those below you on the organizational chart. Give more opportunity to learn and not stick people in their roles and that be that. If you want to fire someone because you don't personally like them, or they make too much... money to justify in the budget, be honest about it, don't make up some empty excuse for it. HR would do well to consider both the supervisor AND employee's side of a situation.
