Pros

I've been reading these reviews and have remain silent as everyone is entitled to their opinions. However, I am tired of reading the negative opinions of some while the majority of us at SAM who enjoyed coming in to work everyday, allow those few negative opinions to represents us. My coworkers and I talked about these reviews and are in disbelief of what is being said. Company encourages employees to learn and grow, we have great benefits, can't beat the 401k match and insurance and the food at SAM you can't beat it. Are they perfect? No, but what company is??? One thing I do know, they really do care about the people.

Cons

Busy....lots of work..some may consider this a con, put for some having the overtime is good thing.

Pros

good benefits but average pay

Cons

The common theme here is management problems. It definitely is a good ole boy attitude and if you aren't already in the club then you never will be. The upper management lies to the clients and the employees about expectations.

I like to start by thanking you for your feedback. We work hard to promote a culture of inclusion, focus on recognizing all our employees’ contributions and talents and are committed to providing everyone with the ability to achieve their career goals. I have the uncompromising belief that the diversity of our employees, based on their experience, background, education and willingness to learn new skills is what strengthen us as a company. Without our employees we would not be successful. Yes, we offer breakfast tacos every Wednesday to our employees along with hosting monthly events as one small way to show our appreciation for the effort and dedication our employees show every day. We understand that to truly support our employees we must provide them with the opportunity to grow and develop in their jobs, as well as provide them with a good work environment that is based on respect. Our company’s core values are our guiding principles for the decisions we make every day: Integrity and Ethics, People, Excellence in Service, Safety and Community. It concerns me that employees do not believe that these values are being exemplified by managers. Like all companies, there are opportunities for us to improve. I am extending an invitation to you to meet with me where you may feel most comfortable to discuss your concerns so that I may understand what may be occurring to determine how to best resolve it. If you would feel more comfortable speaking with our COO or our Director of HR, please feel do not hesitate to contact them directly. I hope that you will consider accepting the invitation as we cannot correct the situation without fully understanding what may be happening.
