Great company
|
|
My position was new so I was able to make it into whatever I felt the company most needed. They are very trusting of their employees, especially when they prove themselves to be loyal to the company. They respect their employees' personal lives and allow additional time off if necessary. There is a once a month lunch, snacks are available every day, and the employees are great. I often found that I wanted to see them after the day ended, which I consider a plus if you enjoy the people you work with. Also, the office views are fantastic. Trust me, it's a pro to the job. Last, Blair makes a point to say hello every day. He likes to know what is occurring, but he isn't overbearing about this. In fact, he gives great advice or ideas into how that area of research could be navigated.
|
My job is isolating, so it's not a con to the company, but more for anyone considering this position further in the future. Understand that this position works more on your own and on occasion works with other employees. "On occasion" can be day to day, but in plenty of instances, it was weeks. It sometimes drove me crazy, but the research portion always kept me very busy. It was an entirely new line of work so there was always a new area of sign regulations to explore.
Oh, and holidays. There just never seems to be enough in a year.

Team builders are done outside of the office, but possibly consider a way to incorporate more social interaction within the office. Or, even meetings for product managers/marketing. I sometimes fell into situations where other people's experiences could have benefited my current research avenues, but I wouldn't know it until much too late into a project.

Once Great to Work For
|
|
Flexibility, decent yearly raises, bonuses
|
Flexibility also means no structure. Clear favoritism from management to staff. No HR, some people get away with almost anything and other people constantly criticized.

Needs improvement, but that won't happen
|
|
Regular raises and bonuses. There are many nice, hardworking people at SmartSign. Unfortunately not enough of them are at the top.
There are genuine friendships made within departments (not solely based on commiserating, but that's certainly a foundation for many). Most people who work here deserve better but have lost motivation.
|
You should go into this job with a short-term mindset. Get in, make some money, get out, go somewhere better.
There is a lack of transparency between the C-Suite and their employees, which I assume is because there's no clear vision of where company is headed. Probably towards being sold. That could be for the best, as there's a large group of people who, for all their complaining and low morale, have stuck around out of comfort and routine.
Back to management, where there's no apparent rhyme or reason behind "strategic" decisions. As a whole, the mindset of this company is outdated. There's not enough regard for the well-being of SmartSign employees (no paid maternity leave!), very little flexibility and understanding when it comes to inclement weather, appointments, etc. Every single minute of work missed is expected to be made up, even if tasks are completed. Do not expect summer Fridays or federal holidays off. There's no leaving early because you've finished all your work for the day. They are NOT generous in terms of time off, with very little regard for employees who need to travel around the holidays.
Overall, it's an uneasy, distrustful environment, both of management towards staff and vice versa. It's not until you've found a better opportunity that you fully realize how toxic this place is. You won't be rewarded for going above and beyond, and the atmosphere overall is stagnant and deflating.

When those at the top can't set an appropriate standard for professionalism, tolerance, and hygiene, do they really expect others to follow suit?

SmartSign is a great company to work for if you are fresh out of college, or if you are in between jobs.
|
There is NO structure at SmartSign! Absolutely none! Some employees who have been there for years gets the short end of the stick, but if you are new and have the "right type of background" the red carpet is rolled out for you.
You cannot move up in SmartSign, so don't get too comfortable or 3 years later you will look up and still be in the same position.
If you didn't attend a "good school" you are not going to make it farther than maybe customer service or sales.
The owner is a really nice man, but he's very aloof of the real issues that are going on in his company.

Start paying attention more to your employees then just the dollar amount. If employees are coming to you with constructive criticism, stop ignoring what the employees are saying.
