Pros

If I could give this company a split Rating I would give it a 5 and a 3. From the perspective of what it's trying to achieve, and how it wants to treat its employees, it's a 5. I think they really mean well, have the best interests of their employees at heart, and would be far more generous in what they pay and the benefits they offer if they could. They try to keep the atmosphere light and family like and most people genuinely are open and friendly and treat each other with respect. I work really hard but I enjoy my work and the people I work with.

Cons

However, at the same time, I feel like they're a 3. The pay is average and the benefits are the bare minimum. I realize it's because they can't afford to offer more right now. It's rather stressful right now as we struggle to grow and there are days I admit it doesn't feel like it's all worth it. Unfortunately, there also seems to be a focus on blame and fault finding, rather than trying to problem solve and learn from past errors. I don't think this is intentional, but it's happening.

Thank you for your honesty. It IS worth it! Hang in there. I truly believe we have the ability to be the "5" employer you describe above. We have hired many very talent individuals. We are still trying to iron out some processes and procedures that should alleviate the frustration you've been feeling. This challenge may be what is causing what you describe as blame and fault finding. I know that isn't the desired culture and I appreciate the feedback that tells me that's the way it's coming across to you. Lastly, with respect to pay and benefits, you are correct. As we grow and become more profitable, we certainly hope to be able to add to our benefits offerings. They are reviewed annually. Unfortunately, medical benefits are the single biggest benefits expense that a company faces. We try to provide a balance of options to our employees and will continue to review our options on a regular basis.

Growing Company

Pros

The company is growing at a rapid pace. With this comes a ton of opportunity for growth and exposure to many aspects of the company. Each person plays a vital role in the success of the company. Accountability is a huge part of of the culture. Some failure is expected and welcomed, as they provide learning experiences. But taking accountability for any failure is huge. The corporate team is small and familial. Many people have become friends beyond work. Since the company is relatively young, there is a lot of opportunity for experimental solutions. This allows everyone to have a voice and bring ideas to upper management for efficiency and accuracy. They are always open to hearing solutions. The office makes an effort to enjoy one another with happy hours and holiday celebrations, such as potlucks and costume contests. Supporting the field is corporate's main objective. There is definitely a sense of working towards a greater cause because of this.

Cons

Since the company is growing so quickly, there is often a lack of resources to keep up with the growth. One-man departments are common, with no one to back them up if they are sick or want to take vacation. Taking vacation is pretty rare throughout corporate, not because it isn't encouraged, it just isn't really possible with the workload. While accountability is a huge, there are times when a lack of trust and communication among the office prevails. Finger pointing happens more times than not. Management is pushing to implement processes and programs that will better streamline the company across all 500+ locations. But with so few resources and people to properly implement the programs, there is a ton of stress and things fall through the cracks. A massive amount of pressure is on each person. Work/life balance has been diminishing over the last year. Benefits and salary are below average. The people make up for it, but it can be frustrating as the cost of living is increasing like crazy in the Bay Area.

I really appreciate the time that you took to provide a very comprehensive review. You are so right that with rapid growth, come the challenges of resources. Relatively speaking, the corporate office is still quite small which leads to what you described: "one-man" departments with no back up. Our senior leadership team is dedicated to continuing to work on strategies that will help us to grow as a company, drive superior levels of customer service but that also provide our employees with a great work life balance. And we absolutely are dedicated to streamlining processes so that our employees can take the vacation time that they need and deserve. Thank you for the advice on communications. Sometimes, when it's a small office, it is easy to assume that somehow communications just happen organically, but that isn't always the case. With respect to celebrating success, it is something we try to do on a regular basis, though, to your point, this has been a really challenging year! We also plan, in the new year, to introduce a start of the art on-line recognition/communications system that should facilitate the ability to reach out to employees with updates, to solicit feedback and to also recognize the great efforts and talents of all our employees.
