Pros

They offer benefits after only 30 days. Free lunch once a month at the place I worked, every week for California corporate office.

Cons

Don't expect to get any help from your team, they will just stab you in the back and go to your supervisor telling them things you did wrong, all while constantly making their own mistakes. Management was a joke, you have a manager who wants to be in control of everything, nepotism is outrageous here, and people are just not very friendly. My first week on the job and I had a woman in another department trying to be my boss. The benefits are absolutely horrible, most of the places I go don't even know what the insurance is! The stretching and health stuff is completely overboard. No diversity or culture.

Hello and thank you for your feedback! We are sorry to learn that our benefits package fell short for you. You are correct in that our benefits do kick-in on the first of the month 30 days after the start of employment. However, we do offer many great benefits such as a significant wellness discount, employee discounts, and substantial 401K matching which we believe is what makes us competitive. Battery Systems is very focused on the safety and wellness of our employees, as most of them are lifting, reaching, and squatting with heavy materials daily. To lessen the change of an injury, we have implemented morning stretches at all of our branches. We are sorry to know you did not find these exercises helpful for you during your time at Battery Systems. Regarding your comment of nepotism, if you would like to provide further information on this matter, please reach out us. We take comments like these very seriously and would appreciate any details you can provide so that we can investigate and solve this issue. Again, thank you so much for your feedback and we are wishing you well in all of your future endeavors!

Pros

Room for growth, good benefits, stable jobs, easy to get a hold of anyone you need to.

Cons

No one has any idea what anyone is doing all of the time. They send the little people to deal with big issues that they have no right to deal with.

Pros

The current management is great. Like everyone the employees have their strengths and weaknesses, but overall they are a pleasure to work with.

Cons

Corporate asks for some extra busy work from employees. Much of this can be explained by installing controls and trying to educate the employees to safety concerns, but some paperwork seem superfluous.
