Pros

No Kidding. Not just in St. Louis. The planet. Possibly the galaxy. Ask anyone who has worked there. Notice the past tense. WorkED. That's because most employees have either resigned out of fear of being fired without just cause or reason, or even explanation, or they have been fired already. Natoli has a 40%-50% employee turnover rate. Those are their own HR numbers. One higher managerial position had four people in its place in a 24-month period. Three were fired, one resigned. Many other managers have been fired after only 30 days, 60 days, 90 days. But the record is 5 days! After only five days a director of a major department was fired. The owner has never had another job his entire adult life (second generation) so he has no clue how to work with people or treat them. He manages by instilling fear in his employees. minions. A very small-minded and insecure approach to business management or interpersonal relationships. There is nothing funny, fun, exciting, interesting, rewarding, satisfying or fulfilling about this place. If your goal is to work in a emotionally stressful toxic work environment, full of petty cliques and small-minded backstabbers, and where the owner screams and swears at employees for no reason, screaming the "F" word in your face, along with every other foul word, then by all means, send in your app today. The owner is entirely unprofessional, arrogant and ignorant. Oh, yeah, under educated. He actually thinks the honorary PhD hanging on his wall, from an institution he has a business relationship with, is a real PhD. He talks derogatorily about employees, to their faces. Calls them names, makes fun of them and threatens their jobs. And this, all before lunch. He admits without blinking an eye to not having a business plan or a sales plan, and because of it, the place reeks of mismanagement and bumbling idiocy. It's an idiocracy (new word). The message here may sound humorous but it is dead serious and completely truthful. Look at other reviews. Save yourself lots of aggravation, time and self-respect and do NOT apply at Natoli.
