Carolinas/ Charlotte office is one of the best cultures you could ask for as an employee

Sales representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- The office managers (particularly in Charlotte) seem to care on employee development and individual success. - if you play your cards right you could make close or over $200k - customers don’t come first, employees come first - Culture is best in class - very little turn over in Carolinas and no one wants to leave - employees get company cars - flexible work hours - Minimal travel unless you sign up for that type of role - Greg Ergenbright seems to “get it”

Cons

- Some HQ contributors aren’t held accountable - P&L targets have ballooned up that are beyond stretch goals - Supply chain needs vast improvement - Vehicles are driven beyond life expectancy.

Long standing company, lucrative by default

Human resources coordinator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Global company, you will meet a great deal of great people. Compensation is more than fair.

Cons

The company has so much room for improvement, many opportunities but employees don't know how to get to them. Company does not have a hire from within culture. They sit on talent too long, the market is competitive and have lost many to the competition. "Old boys club" type of culture, where there is absolutely NO diversity in upper management. Women don't stand a chance at this organization. Friends hire friends or family members instead of qualified talent.

Superintendent

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay and great people to work with

Cons

Everything else! Company admits that the superintendent role is the hardest job in the company but does nothing to support the position. Lots of turnover due to the high stress environment. Superintendents are not given the tools they need to properly do their jobs. It’s like building a house without a hammer.
