Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

I work with some of the best managers that I could possibly imagine. I'm grateful for them every single day.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

Stop looking out after temp members and remember that long-time full-time team members got them to where they are. promoting from within not outsourcing from other locations or other places. acknowledging that some people care but do not appreciate being overlooked, dismissed or pushed down because

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 10 days ago

I think the company should prioritize investing in its employees through competitive wages and raises rather than spending so much on pizza, chocolates, and other nonessential perks.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Accountability and holding the same standard for each employee

Review from Admin Dept

Better communication be more clear and concise

Review from Admin Dept

Better pay. Better investment in our store.

Review from Admin Dept

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

The variety of options to choose from.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 11 days ago

I feel my salary and profit-sharing match is the best part of my package

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

I'm not sure how to answer that.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

I appreciate the low-cost GLP-1 medication and prescription coverage.

Review from Admin Dept

I don't use the company health insurance

Review from Admin Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

Fair pay for the job that's being done, no raise from mgmt. - ever. only cost of living increase yearly (that's under the of inflation, costs rising don't match at all. "Rich get richer - rest of us suffer", no other choice

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 10 days ago

With my seniority and experience I am paid less for the same or lesser work from my younger counterparts. I could move to a different company and make more money with equal or lesser responsibilities.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

The current economic strain in prices is outpacing our earnings. The industry is hurting and seeing more company "acquisitions" maybe a strategy to overcome the current headwinds, but it's difficult to support a million dollar plus purchase when you can barely afford your groceries anymore

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

The company gives no real merit raises. I was told they only give raises in March, which are tied more to inflation than anything. The raises they give are a maximum of 4 percent so if you earn $20/hour, you don't even get a dollar raise.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Unfortunately - no one seems to be able to make ends meet these days. More political than anything, in my opinion.

Review from Admin Dept

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

Open and flexible to new ideas and change.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 11 days ago

We work well together. Enjoy each other's company inside and outside of work.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

We care about each other and always support each other when needed. We are extended family.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

The culture is the best part. Its a true team in every way

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

happy, always willing to help

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

Speak English, show up every day, perform their duties and pay attention to their trainings. They just don't care. incentive program kills morale. not shared equally, and nothing for indirect even though 40% increase of production attributed to safety.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 10 days ago

Treating each other with respect and common courtesy

Review from Admin Dept

They are SO loud. I really wish they would learn to manage the noise level so we can all work in a moderately quiet environment. The noises and repeated words that come out of my coworker closest to my desk are obnoxious and unnecessary.

Review from Admin Dept

Improve on overall communication with better practices

Review from Admin Dept

Passive aggressive behavior is not necessary from a coworker who's training others. Less use of Teams and more personal interaction.

Review from Admin Dept

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

everyone watches out for each other regardless of the situation.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 11 days ago

We are involved in our community. We try to establish a good work/life balance.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

It feels like home away from home. We all work together to create a pleasant and positive atmosphere.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

You can be honest, speak up about ideas. Be allowed to fail and try new initiatives. You have people who will step up to help, just as you step up to help them. Its collaborative when you need it to be.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

It's a laid back environment where if you get your work done, you won't be micro-managed.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

Environment Reviews

As a member since the beginning (Pelican Co) There has been a rot from the inside (physical to the buildings and attitude/aptitude). No one cares in conclusion. a wage that started at $15/hour a few years ago would need to be around $19-$22/hour today to maintain similar purchases, NOT HERE

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 10 days ago

Accountability for every employee, no playing favorites

Review from Admin Dept

Again communication. Perhaps having monthly meeting within the office and more morale boosting. Also some positive encouragement instead of always focusing on the negative.

Review from Admin Dept

New management, new admin, fresh ideas and thoughts and management

Review from Admin Dept

I HAVE GREAT IDEAS BUT IT REQUIRES INVESTMENTS

Review from Admin Dept

Outlook Reviews

The ability to grow and learn when opportunities arise.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 11 days ago

The people that I work with.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

Resolving tough issues. Making the customers happy and letting them know that I care about their needs and that I will do what it takes to get the job done promptly and correctly.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

When i am successful at my job and a mentor to my coworkers.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 14 days ago

My coworkers, the culture. The ability to laugh at the day

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

Leadership starts at the top, if they follow whatever they want to do, but expect others to follow their own rules not corporate rules, Osha policy improvement cannot be made.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 10 days ago

The company offers very little holidays/benefits. They always say those are only bank holidays. They expect 100% dedication for low wages. Most employees earn less than McDonalds employees and their general attitude is "be grateful you have a job" as if we were undocumented employees.

Review from Admin Dept · Posted 15 days ago

Management allows favorite employees to do whatever they want without consequences, while holding other employees accountable to the same offenses

Review from Admin Dept

There's been a lot of changes in our region and we seem to be kept in the dark on what that holds for our future. Employees see things changing but management never communicates or gives us reassurance to know we are stable at the company.

Review from Admin Dept

More communication is needed. Proper training of all employees.
