Pluspunten

Events - such as chili cook off, derby car races, holiday parties. Most employees are nice and friendly. Cafeteria onsite is convenient and a time saver.

Minpunten

Stuck in modes of thinking and working that brought success in the past. People follow process, not because they are efficient or effective, but because "the way things are done." Active Inertia - tendency to follow patterns of behaviors - even in response to dramatic environmental shifts. With no formal job description, job training, processes or procedures in place - many employees are frustrated and confused as what is expected of them. No HR Department. Transparency - Ha-This company holds more secrets than the government. Employees fear their jobs may be at risk, so they hoard information to secure their position. Earnings have increased due to company layoffs - over stock value continues to plummet.

Pluspunten

Everyone from director level on down in my department was great. Very collaborative. Gave you autonomy to do and try new things.

Minpunten

Where do I start…Sr. Leadership is TERRIBLE. I mean absolutely horrific. No direction and plans were changing at the drop of a dime after the BB&B “merger”. You could feel the shift in the culture, just NASTY attitudes and taking the employees for granted. The new CEO and the rest of Sr. level execs acted like everyone was just expendable workhorses. They touted reopening the headquarters cafe as some awesome benefit so they could bring people back to the office full time. If you’re going to be bullish and require everyone back, have some guts and just do it. But don’t act like a cafe is some life changing benefit to get everyone excited. Anyway, blind leading the blind. The merit increase or raises - non existent. No 401k match. Nothing positive because the company is so broke. The new store concept sounds a mess. Save yourself and don’t even apply, let alone accept an offer. Joel Bines is no longer the CEO. He was a great guy and I think he had great ideas. Marcus Lemonis is the new CEO and I would give him a thumbs down.
