Group Management Services Reviews

Wholesale removal of all competitive benefits that the company once touted as their dedication to employee well-being. Removal of remote work, removal of company car, removal of compensation opportunities, etc. All with nearly no notice so the employees they have working here have time to plan. The extensive list of negative change is too exhausting to write. All you have to do is see their responses to any negative review to see the type of "leadership" you have operating this business. A once genuinely enjoyable place to work is nothing but a shell of what it (perhaps) once was. Disgustingly absent communication from anyone about the reason for changes, lack of a coherent strategy for change and an abysmal attempt at "communication" from the HR team are just the rotten cream on top of the proverbial garbage pie this company has become, and what's worse is the lack of empathy and respect for the human lives that dedicate their time to this organization. The fact that Mike or anyone else in a decision making position can rest their heads at night is sickening to say the least. In my nearly 30 years of working in this industry, particularly in leadership, this is by far the largest disappointment.

I see a lot of other reviews comparing the culture at GMS to that of a frat house and I would have to disagree, the owner is more akin to a high schooler whose parents are out of town for the weekend. Zero professionalism, no tact, and no empathy or compassion for anyone but himself, his bank account and his ego- which has apparently taken a huge hit recently. The way he presents himself at company meetings is at best, disrespectful and immature. His latest unhinged decisions are truly mind blowing. It's apparent that he wants people to quit, the very people who are running his precious company. Perhaps he saw something from the front seat of his Tesla, or his Lexus or maybe it was the Mercedes, that no one else could see as he decided to rip away pretty much all company benefits promised to GMS employees, including the company cars. Whatever the reason was, it wasn't shared with anyone other than maybe his inner circle (clique). Even more disturbing, was his decision to eliminate all remote work unless you are 40 miles from a GMS office. He bragged about the fact that GMS was already setup for remote work at the beginning of Covid, so there is absolutely no reason to have the entire company back in the office 40 hours/week-unless again, it's to boost his own ego. My advice to anyone looking for employment, stay far away from GMS. Toxic is an understatement for the way this company is run. Mike Kahoe cares only about Mike Kahoe.
