I have been with Schellman for more than a handful of years now. I find management to be very dedicated to creating an amazing culture and being reflective in its decision making. There have been recent challenges as the company has achieved growth success, and leadership is open and upfront about what the plan is and how we are aiming to attack it. The company hires very competent people and our retention rate reflects management's commitment to hiring and keeping its talent. I am happy at Schellman and the company culture is a major reason for that.
Cons
Recent bonuses have been affected by increased costs by way of growth, but still leadership has been upfront about that. By way of more stakeholders via equity, it sometimes feels like we bite off more than we can chew.

As culture is a huge emphasis at Schellman and People Come First, we love to hear that the reason you’re happy at Schellman is the culture! Our bonuses do vary from quarter to quarter and depending on the time of the year, some are higher than others. We appreciate your insight and welcome you to send any additional thoughts to feedback@schellman.com.
Management frequently improves benefits. Management really knows the business well. The company has historically been well insulated from economic downturns. So many opportunities to stand out and make a name for yourself
Cons
Data driven decisions still a work in progress. Long term vision is likely 1 ish year.

Pros
The people. Peers are great to work with and very supportive. Some of the leaders in the teams are as well. Perks were GREAT but have slowly been taken away or the costs went up.
Cons
Where do I begin? Wholesale executive turnover. Technology projects that we're supposed to say are awesome but aren't really that great. They take up more time to figure out than they're worth and we know those are meant to take our jobs. AI, offshore, temp labor. No thanks. It was a place I loved working at but has slowly just become a job that makes me feel like I should be watching for somewhere else to go. Just in case. The culture has changed quite a bit too. It used to feel like a place where we all wanted to work together but that's slowly fading.
