Pros

Co-workers are incredibly supportive and it can feel like a family. The company is still family-owned and they are involved and supportive. You feel like you form a connection with the Freemans.

Cons

Long hours and you can be on the road for weeks at a time which means you don't have much of a work-life balance. Your experience is reflective of who is your direct supervisor and if you have a bad one, God help you. HR is not helpful. Many of the company's executives and HR still are grounded in a "business as usual" boys club so their DEI awareness is lacking. Additionally, best of luck getting a promotion. They like to give you a promotion only after you've started doing your boss's boss's job.

Pros

Freeman is an exciting fast paced place to work. The variety of projects keep your work day interesting and allow you to develop your skills.

Cons

Middle management positions are heavily filled by nepotism, this is more important than qualifications. Communication between departments has issues, people are worked so hard that a culture of passing the problem onto the next stage or department has become frequent.
