Stark Carpet reviews

While I may not agree with your depiction of our company in the "Cons" section of your review, I am sorry that you left us with such negatives feelings and memories. That said, I would like address the issues you raised. Every job we post is a real job that we need to fill. However, when we interview a candidate that possess certain competencies that we believe makes them suitable for a particular career track, we open up an exploratory dialogue with that candidate during the interview process. We don't just hire for today, we hire for the future. While a candidate may have applied for a specific job, we are also thinking about how the candidate can grow here at Stark. While we value and encourage clear and frequent communications between employees and their managers, especially around the topic of performance (goals, expectations and progress), we recognize this is a work in progress for us. I am sorry that you may have had a manager that was less skilled than needed while you were with us. Our work environment is a melting pot of high performing, high energy people who all get along very well with each other. I respectfully disagree with your assertion that they are disrespectful toward each other. As to your last issue, "managers pitting employees against each other for professional growth", while you may have interpreted something you heard or saw that way, it's just not an accurate assessment.

First I would like to apologize to you for going through the experience of HR not getting back to you. It is neither our MO nor is it acceptable. Thank you for leaving your list of Pro’s about the company. I agree with you 100%. Our employees, pay and our benefits have been recognized as being among the best in the industry. The company has an open door policy that the Stark’s live by. Management want to hear from employees, especially employees with suggestions to make the company better. I encourage you to use suggestions@starkcarpet.com to submit your ideas about the structure of our company rules. Also, if you choose to identify yourself in your email, I assure you someone will get back to you to discuss your ideas and suggestions. On a final note, sometimes managers do things that they don’t realize they are doing (i.e. micromanaging). If you feel strongly about it, it may be a good idea to open up a discussion with your manager about how you feel.
