Great atmosphere and team cohesion, but lacks confidence in long term employee retainment

Logistics manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Campuses are stacked with employee services and outreach programs. Business casual work attire and relaxed emphasis on how you look leads to more emphasis on how you perform.

Cons

Longevity of employee retainment, as layoffs are used too often for cost cutting measures. Promotions and salary increases are rare and small at best. Business practices do not mirror the same latest advancements as their products do.
