Pros

Family-run environment, which can be both a pro or a con. There is good opportunity to learn and grow your skill set.

Cons

You can hear a pin drop in the corporate office, as people are afraid to let loose and have fun while the owners are around. The ownership insists in saying that they listen to opinions and ideas, but in reality only do so with a couple of favorites that have been with the company for a long time. One of the company core values is "TRUST", but there is very little trust of ownership's ability to properly charge customers for services and lead the company toward growth. Too many customers are underpaying for services, which results in lower than market compensation for employees. Folks only appear to be brought up to market value in compensation when they threaten to leave. At least 8-10 key people in the organization left in 2018 or here in 2019 to move on for better opportunities.

Pros

Working here has been truly rewarding. My job allows me to make an impact on others, and I deeply appreciate the trust that’s been placed in me. The people I work with are exceptional, supportive, thoughtful, and genuinely collaborative, and that makes even the tough days feel worthwhile.

Cons

There are definitely challenges, and not every decision is easy, but having seen what’s out there, I can honestly say there’s nothing quite like working with a team that cares, grows together, and makes doing meaningful work possible. The transparency, thoughtfulness, and sense of shared purpose here make it a place I’m proud to be part of.

Pros

Not many pros to speak on.

Cons

All lies and lots of smoke and mirrors! Two brothers that are spoiled kids that took over daddies company and have no clue how to run the business. If you take a job here, you will be looking to leave as fast as you got in! Core value is loving people but they stomp all over their employees when it's time to cut them loose! So they actually are ruining lives and families, not loving people.
