      The Chicago Bulls of the late 1980s/early 1990s

      Pros

      Caltrol has lots of pros like an Employee Stock Ownership program where every employee earns ownership through their years of service. Years ago, Caltrol had organizational challenges and some average talent (like the 1970s Chicago Bulls), but now Caltrol is on a path to greatness with Steve Babensee at the helm. He's building strong teams and driving the organization towards excellence. Caltrol is drawing the best talent and building an unbeatable organization! This is the place to work if you're looking to be part of something that is impactful, doing meaningful work, and helps you grow professionally.

      Cons

      Depending on the role, you could be on the road a lot. The company has several business units and depending on your role, you may not interact with all groups. Each BU has it's own processes which can make it tricky to navigate the organization. Each year there are fewer cons as the company strives towards delivering the best results for its customers.

      Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback! Being an Employee Owned Company means that we are all in it together! We too are excited about the direction Caltrol is taking towards excellence. Some of our positions do require a lot of time spent traveling, but we try to maintain a good work life balance.

      An Employee-Owned Company invested in their People

      Pros

      The culture - Everyone earns shares in the company, so the focus is on what's best for business rather than the individual The people - Co-workers are willing to answer questions or pitch in when necessary Benefits - There are some cool benefits. You get a fitness reimbursement, 3 weeks PTO plus 12 holidays, and shares in the company just by showing up to work

      Cons

      The different business units don't always collaborate, which can lead to extra work and frustration. The CEO is trying to combat this, but his plans are still taking shape.

      Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback. I agree that Caltrol offers some amazing benefits. The $400 a year Fitness/Personal Growth Reimbursement is pretty generous. I'm happy that the CEO's efforts to combat the silos is recognized. Let's check back in 6 months to see if there have been any changes to this situation. Keep on doing what your doing!
