I thoroughly enjoy working at Hoshizaki and for my immediate manager.
Overall, Hoshizaki is great to work for. However, there are a small number of employees (some very senior &/or have been w/ Hoshizaki for many yrs) that are truly holding the company back. While, yes, having experience at Hoshizaki is definitely a plus, there are other ways that could be even better
The company has a lot of potential for growth and improvement, but, unfortunately, several VPs have very chaotic leadership styles which leave most people feeling jerked around and perpetually chasing changing priorities.
Being able to make a lasting difference
Their ability to be approached to talk with.
I don't have a compensation package from Hoshizaki.
The small-company feel and general friendliness of everyone
That we have all departments under one roof
Being able to contribute in a meaningful way.
Feeling like I made a difference
The best part are bonuses.
Bonuses are the best part of the compensation package.
The part is the bonuses
The available PTO and bonuses
How well we work together.
Their competency, helpfulness, and knowledge.
The company has many employee-centered events throughout the year.
Contributing in a meaningful manner
The high regard for employee morale the leadership team has.
They are very interested in offering morale-boosting activities for the employees.
One of the best things about my team is its cohesiveness.
Having a variety of projects to work and being trusted with independence.
They are enthusiastic, communicative, and seem to have a genuine interest in their employees' well-being.
The leadership team places a high importance on employee morale and provides many opportunities to show that to the employees.
Over the past several years, they have really embraced the concept of employee appreciation and have many activities throughout the year offered.
Promoting David Sellers to VP of Engineering was a great decision. He is extremely bright and level-headed and, hopefully in his new position as VP he will be able contribute some much needed structure and guidance.
