QUIKRETE is a horrible company to work for, especially if you are in their corporate office. I don't work in the plants is much better. It's a white man's world where women's opinions are not listened to & women themselves essentially act as eye candy for the men. I fully believe that I was hired more because of my looks rather than because I was qualified to do the job I was hired for. Management is horrible all around. And the company's non-existent response to the coronavirus pandemic was an absolute joke. They created an incredibly unsafe working environment and COVID basically ripped through the work force of the corporate offices. You could wear a mask in the office and would not be asked to take it off, but it was clear from interactions with fellow employees (especially management) that they disapproved of people wearing masks in the office place. A worker was out because of COVID and the only thing I heard from their supervisor was "So when are they going to be back in the office?" The company showed no care or concern for its employees and how the pandemic was impacting them. All they cared about was maintaining their profit stream and that meant bodies in the office and actively discouraging work from home, which was a feasible avenue for many employees but see reference to the 1950s mindset below. The 401K retirement program is a joke - it's not even worth the investment. The company itself operates in a 1950s mindset and it shows. Using technology that would help to streamline processes is frowned upon. It's by far the most toxic workplace I have ever been in. If you value your professional & personal ethics, do not work here because you will have to compromise them, and no job is worth doing that.
