Not The best managed company I have worked at!

Maintenance engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Location, on St Pete Beach with Gulf views. They didn't micromanage, also there is a good restaurant on the property that gives a 10% discount could be higher being BEACH prices! Also, 7-8 other places within a block to eat! (if you could afford.)

Cons

The maintenance shop is too small to do a lot of projects that need to be done out in the HOT 8-month SUMMER SUN! There's no direct access to the rooms without going outside going through 3 doors. That might not seem too bad until you start carrying ladders and equipment through torrential downpours!

Pros

Great Location on the Gulf of Mexico, no micro-managing an air-conditioned break room and shop

Cons

Management was a bit lax where some employees did very little of the workload and those that did more than expected and weren't given credit for being self-starters or doing outstanding work. Raises were minuscule and experienced employees with experience and superior skills weren't paid any more than those that had NO skills!
