Pros

*Loved the customers. Love the work. Love the team. Would have loved to stay 20+ years for the team/customers alone.

Cons

*Seems that the customer focus is lost. Successful customer outcome 100% of the time doesn't necessarily mean a happy customer. Happy customer's call back. *Spend so much time spent looking at metrics and billable rate that the customers started locking up their wallets when you walked in the room. Yuck!

Pros

Profit sharing, ESOP, good 401k. Benefits are good, the people are friendly. Office facilities are well maintained and updated regularly

Cons

Disconnected management. Leadership changes over the past several years have not improved the company. Management will claim that people are problems identifiers, not problem solvers, despite ignoring suggestions for improvement because they don’t fit the management ideals. However, the original issues remain with no path forward. Focus on physical time at the office as a measure of effort, not actual results or willingness to work remotely as needed to get the job done. Claims to be a family company, but leaving to make sure you can get to your child before day care closes is looked down upon. Requests for guidance on how to make an impact go unanswered, which makes people less willing to look for improvement opportunities

Pros

Excellent retirement package and health benefits. Good vacation time and holidays. Newly remodeled office is clean and comfortable. Company is financially strong.

Cons

New president is too young and the wrong personality type for the position. Too much nepotism; friends of the new management team are hired and inserted into positions where they know little. Many divisions are understaffed and can’t keep up yet management refuses to see it or acknowledge it. Older employees have retired or were let go in a large layoff over a year ago. Kids out of college have replaced them. Consequently, the Company lost much of its experience and wisdom.
