About 8 yrs behind in technology. Fantastic Ownership
Pros: potential for growth
Cons: night management is lacking leadership
This company has great potential. They have one of the best most caring people right at the top. Mrs. owners wife is very intelligent and passionate about the company. It's too bad they have got a few bad seeds on the warehouse management team. The night manager is a great front man, but is completely insecure. He won't ever be respected by his employees.
– more... You can tell he bought a book or two on managing difficult people. He is just a used car salesman without a conscience. Which will only keep him in the same job if there is not a replacement. His replacement is there, but last I heard he was still a lead not even a supervisor. This company does a unbelievable job with the technology they have. However, they could blow the competition away with a few adjustments. I would love to sit down with Mrs. owners wife and the director and discuss the changes that I could have made 3 years ago. I put in for a supervisor job as I was instructed to by the acting manager before the old supervisor even stepped down. Interviewed with the director and the V.P. who I believe wanted to hire me as the supervisor. Until the manager talked them out of it. They proceeded to hire yet another salesman who sold them a horrible new system that was a complete waste of money. Mrs. owners wife was furious. The whole reason that happened is I started to ride in with a co worker who happened to be female. I wasn't aware that the manager was sleeping with her. For one she was married. Two she worked directly under him. For whatever it's worth I would still sit down and discuss anything that I have said and back it up with witnesses and evidence. There is many more things that I could have said, but out of respect for the ownership I refused. One other thing that bothered me is that they were always rated one of Utah's best places to work. I feel that it was inaccurate based on each employee was logged into the company computer under their own username and answered the questionnaire that rated their department management as well as the corporation as a whole. – less
