Pros

When the profits are high, the owner is happy. They do try to take care of the customers as best as they can, that they have going for them.

Cons

They treat the employees like robots. No sick days and a doctors note if you miss work or your fired. You always need to work harder and more hours or you are treated like dirt. This company only cares about profit and not about the people that are trying to help turn a profit, those that put in the hard work and make it happen. Unless you are the owner or immediate family you are constantly told how horrible of a job you are doing and if you are in the owners family, you can do a horrible job and still stayed employed and be payed handsomely, even if you completely suck at your job. Employee turnaround is very high.

Wimsatt Building Materials Response
10y
The nature of the Midwest building materials distribution business is seasonal. During the busiest parts of the season, delivery and warehouse personnel are frequently scheduled with overtime. Scheduled hours can range from about 40 hours during the Winter to 60+ hours at the height of the season.
