Pros

The community of employees is great.

Cons

During the pandemic Abt really messed up. We were given an option to not work, but that meant those of us who chose to work had mandatory overtime for MONTHS. When you are delivering and installing large appliances you physically cannot work 60 hour weeks for an extended period of time.

Abt Response

Abt chose to stay open during the pandemic to support our community with essential goods and allow our employees a chance to support their families. Whoever decided to stay on was grateful they were able to do this throughout those tough times. During the pandemic, we were extremely overrun with staffing issues, supply chain, and an overwhelming demand for certain essential goods. Most stores were shut down and not doing in-home deliveries and we were happy to have gotten the job done together with our staff. In fact, most of our crew was happy with the extra OT pay, extra bonus pay, and grateful to be able to help out our customers. The brothers worked side by side with their father (Abt Sr.) for many years and nothing has changed since his passing.
