What are the typical growing pains that come with a company growing?

if you ever plan to become a manager for levy restaurants ….you can expect to be in a facility as a manager for less than 3 years...that is the average amount of time that we have a manager for before they move on. manager retainment in the company or even in a facility is rare.

Realizing too late that more resources needed to be hired.

New challenges that the company never experience before aka the growing pains. Hard to set expectations when you are leading the path into a new road.

Promoting people who are not ready to move into the new position and therefore ruining the company's future.

We need more employees in order to keep up with the work and take on more work that will bring in more money, but we need more money to pay for more employees. This is one of the most difficult growing pains for a company to overcome.

Communicate how the lines of authority has changed; send out new Employee Lists to with emails and extensions;

Some companies get too ambitious and begin too many projects or start offering new services without having the time/resources to execute all of them properly.

More people of various types from various backgrounds coming in and those who have been there for a longer period of time not respecting others, or feeling threatened. The more people a company has the more it has to deal with racism, bigotry, sexism and must address tolerance and acceptance of different types of people.

Scalability, change, etc. Making sure you have enough of the right staff to get the work done RIGHT. Many wait too long to staff appropriately and good employees get burnt out and customers are left unhappy with the level of service. Worst case, you loose your good employees before they can share knowledge with new ones.

1. Federal, state, and local regulations. 2. Finding engaged and committed workers. 98% of workers want to do as little as possible.

In the beginning you can provide extremely good customer service to your very few customers. As you grow and need to increase revenue to increase growth expenses, it becomes harder to provide the same level of service.

Incompetence. A growing company attracts slackers, who only want to leech and take credit of others' work.
