Everyone is friendly and we all get along great..

The communication is a big positive

The team that I have built and mentored on becoming professional and more positive regardless of how they feel of the others around them.

The production team works together and executes goals together.

My coworkers and the schedule

Most People work together well.

It is a good culture

ITS NEVER A DULL MOMENT FROM THE TIME YOU GET TO WORK TIL YOU LEAVE. YOUR ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING TO HELP EACH OTHER AND THE STORE.

Everyone is friendly and eager to help

My dispatch manager has been very helpful and not after to het his hands dirty . Just like our new GM . Dave thompson and craig walk are 2 great leaders

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

A change in management retrain and cross training

Management needs go threw training on how to properly speak/ listen to employees

I really don't know the survey seems pointless

Management and CEO and corporate

Work life balance work decent amount of hours that your able to spend quality time with family

People not trying to fight me in the bathroom

To fire all employees there and start over fresh. When I first got hired there I was flabbergasted by what is allowed to go on on a daily basis inside this corporation I have owned three businesses and have had 35 employees under me for 28 years I was retired when I was hired

When employees are comfortable working in the company and have been there for a long time they're the ones you need to watch out for they're the ones who take advantage of you

Reduce the working hours or give employees option of leaving work early during quiet periods.

Review from Operations Dept

Get new managers they all think they are better then anyone

Manager and lead positions in my opion

Fire everyone and start all over

Review from Operations Dept

The main manager all he cares is his own benefits

Field sales professionals were treated like a number & direct management fostered a culture of do as I say or I’ll enact disciplinary actio

Management that cares about people's lives outside of work considering most of our day is spent at work. When you spend so much time at work in a environment you for the most part dont care for it can and will cause mental health issues.

Enforce the rules and make the managers follow them as well

Workers who show pride in their work

Communication and being honest with employees

Review from Operations Dept

Employee appreciation, better communication, an actual HR person on location

Review from Operations Dept

Duties that are achievable and not dangerous and stressful at times.
