Business Outlook

Pros

the pay, the facilities, and leaving Fred Beans

Cons

everything else. The process, working for an owner that uses ignorant comments to describe his female employees and employees of color. Working with the owners daughter than can't hold he crazy together long enough to put together a sentence. The overall poor environment the arrogant, family hating Beans family projects onto its people. They will show off to the outside with different luncheons etc but leave commissioned sales people to clean up after hourly or salary employees. This company is focused on one thing only, money. If they can step on you, or use you to further their agenda they will.

Save yourself the time, it's worse at beans, not better

Business Outlook

Pros

None, this place is an absolute joke. Employees are treated like customers, not good and management could care less about anything other than hitting their numbers. They will tell customers to come in on cars that aren't even there just to get them in the dealership

Cons

No room for advancement, awful compensation even for a college degree, managers play favoritism and Fred is simply a pompous a hole. If they can rip you off and "forget" about payroll, they will sometimes pretend that something in the system was wrong

Pros

Absolutely nothing. People even get sick from the water there. A place to work while looking for better work.

Cons

This place honestly has the look and feel of a prison. Not one person is smiling as you walk through. Everyone is overworked and underpaid. I witnessed over 30 people quit in 1 year of employment. Management is full of false hope and empty promises. Raises are a joke, if you even get one. Warehouse employees are neglected and treated poorly by other "superior" employees in other areas of Fred Beans' corrupt organization. Problem solvers are shot down because no one wants anything to change. Big wigs make the bucks and blue shirts do all the work for nothing. So much drama too. They hire ANYONE so you will be picking up the pieces for a lot of your coworkers, with no compensation for it as they continue to ease by and get paid the same as you. Favoritism, favoritism, favoritism. I regret ever being a part of this company. I hope you read this before wasting your life away too. And for current employees reading this? FREE YOURSELF BROTHERS!!!!!!
