Pros

Distinct culture that follows the company’s CARES model, flexibility with work-life balance, IT support to work remotely, excellent facilities at Corporate HQ in downtown Nashville, pro-bike company.

Cons

We’re short on desk space at HQ and need more talent to meet project demands (Facilities Group), downtown location makes commuting during major events difficult.

Thanks for your feedback! Allowing and trusting our employees to have a flexible work environment and schedule is part of what makes us a great place to work! We're glad that you've experienced this so far during your time here at Barge. We've definitely been growing both with clients and new faces, so that can sometimes put strain on the team in regards to space and helping hands.

Pros

There is a reason Barge has been certified a "Great Place to Work" for 2 years in a row. This is a great company that gives its employees opportunity to purchase stock, has given raises and bonuses every year I have been here, and helps with retirement plans. The health benefits program is great and offers discounts and incentives for doing well with your health. Barge really cares about its employees’ health by having these incentives but also by bringing in others to help and teach about healthier living. Barge's new headquarters building is in a great location. The building is awesome with great collaborative spaces as well as over 10 conference rooms, a wellness room, many coffee bars throughout, a great break area with access to outdoors, a workout room, free parking for employees and guests, a bicycle storage area, showers, a 2 story atrium for company wide announcements and so many more great features. I love working here. Barge also has an annual stock holders meeting and banquet every year. It is a great opportunity to meet other employees face to face from difference offices, hear our CEO speak on a topic that is always very inspiring, and get rewarded for the years of service each employee has given. The work / life balance is also very stable with little mandatory overtime. Barge also has a flex schedule that is beneficial when life happens. There are many employee based groups so that employees do have a voice in Barge. Everyone is very nice and I really enjoy working here. Lastly, I appreciate that for large company wide events we pray before the meal. It just says something to me about the integrity of Barge.

Cons

Communication on deadlines could improve from project managers.

Wow! Thank you for the amazing feedback! We're so proud of our GPTW certification - it's proof that we've been listening to the feedback that comes directly from our employees! Speaking to that, with our most recent survey, it was clear that employees wanted more involvement in decision making. In one of our employee led action teams, the employees came up with several suggestions to the Executive team including your suggestion around more communication from PMs. Stay tuned for more info on how that will be improved!
