This is a sorry company

Pros

There are plenty of good people that work here, and some of them are trying.

Cons

Those good people are terrible co workers. Upper management is in terrible, and misleading. Middle management often makes moves/says things due to panic. So many rumors start up everyday and are often spread through middle management. The policies that they have are often broken, or "exceptions" are made. Lowering sales commission has now upset the team and they are losing sales team members and clients because of it. The HR team seems to have no clue what they are doing, constantly switching job duties, and they have had at least 5 team members come and go over the past 2 years. If they can't keep their own team together how are they supposed to provide for the company? HR is the worst about breaking the policies that they often set. They have been saying that things are changing for the better for several years now, but they keep making the same mistakes. look at the comments on here, as time goes on they get worse and worse.

While I recognize your experience was negative at AFS, I do appreciate your time in writing this review. Without specifics, I can’t speak to some of your feedback. The sales commissions were not lowered, but became more of an initiative for our sales team to pursue new clients. This commission model is best practice in our industry. The HR team have employed temporary employees who have assisted with projects, but only hired 2 full time employees in the past 2 years. We evaluate the strengths of our team and have shifted duties within our department as we grow and bring new experience to the team. We also believe in cross-training, which allows us to offer the best service to our employees. The current team has over 40 years of experience in HR and takes pride in our current initiatives that align with the company’s business goals.

Pros

The vacation/PTO policy allows you to maintain a positive balance between work and family. There is a handful of employees left that are truly great assets.

Cons

There is little to no transportation experience in the Executive Committee. As a result, bad decisions are made that directly affect the organization's ability to take care of our customers. "Ethics" is preached throughout the organization, however, when making daily decisions to run the business, ethics are never considered. The turnover with employees and customers is constant and very worrisome. It is very telling to know that the positive reviews posted on this site were solicited by the HR department.

I am sorry that you are disappointed. We made great strides in becoming self-funded for health insurance and the benefit offerings will continue to improve. In 2016, we offered multiple plans including a PPO and the cost for employees to add dependents to the health benefits decreased. We will also be working this year to create competitive compensation ranges for our employees. The 2016 business plan will also address decision making that focuses on client retention. Thank you for your valuable feedback.
