I worked at Trox for over 6 years, and during my time with the company, I did gain some knowledge but more than anything, I learned that favorites always get ahead. I worked under two supervisors, who constantly bullied and under appreciated my work. The pay is horrible for the amount of work you have to do. The culture is similar to school girls gossiping in high school or ignoring your presence altogether. The only reason I’m appreciative of the opportunity is because I was able to gain work experience. Besides the work experience, the benefits were good. Aside from those, I have never felt more belittled and unseen in my life. There is no ongoing training at this company, no reviews given, no opportunity for growth and no raises. I do not recommend working for this company.

No performance reviews. 

No real advancement opportunities beyond more responsibilities for no pay increase. You will work here for years without any real progress made towards a promotion unless you’re one of the favorites. 

Cliquish higher management that doesn’t care about the people under them. 

Underpaid for the work output that’s expected.

Overall poor planning if any planning is done at all. 

Warehouse is dangerously cluttered. 

Management doesn’t fully understand what’s actually going on around the warehouse or the work being done which leads to employees having to figure out a lot of things for themselves with no real help. 

Don’t expect much to come from this job. I don’t know how this place hasn’t been unionized yet. 





Not much opportunity for advancement, but the co-workers are great. It was a good place to land after I have been through some extreme life changes. I will miss the people, but not the lack of opportunity for advancement or the lack of perks. Antiquated dress code for people who never deal face-to-face with customers and the "butts in seats for X numbers of hours" will not be missed either. That being said, if you come from a call center type of environment, you will appreciate the flexibility beyond that scenario.

This place could really use some organization. Basice responsibility for various items around the office fall on the backs of people who are completely unrelated. For certain repairs around the office theres 2 executives you tell and they typically have no interest in helping you. For Restocking breakroom items and cleanliness they rely on various accounting reps. And they dont really have a receptionist. Just some person in accounting who has social anxiety. This place BADLY needs an Office Manager to get things organized. I dont understand how things get done here. 

For a summer job it was really fun. My coworkers and I would be in the warehouse competing on who can get the most chrome book carts together within a day. We were also provided with breaks here and there and were able to listen to music. Also every other Friday I was part of the delivery crew and so I traveled in a semi to cities that were 2-3 hours away and unloaded these carts at elementary Schools. We were also payed for the trip and I thought that was pretty nice because I would get overtime on these days.

A typical day at Troxell is fast pace and quickly changing. I've learned to find balance as it's easy to work longer than anticipated, especially when it's something you genuinely enjoying doing. The culture brings employees together for various team building events and encourages an open door policy for all. The most enjoyable part of the job is the diversity of daily tasks, the hardest part of the job is walking away after a 10 hour day.

-Fast quality production, and checking for material defects were a typical days work.
-Teamwork is important to the company for production.
-Co-workers were comedians. 
- Although using a mat to stand on while working, standing on concrete was painful to the feet and it affected the back.  
-Enjoyable times were when the company provided family outings and gave a way prizes.  In addition, fishing in the companies' pond was also fun.

I was in installation, I was way over worked and way underpaid to not only be a lead but a service tech and a programmer. They had no idea how to design or engineer jobs which made it very stressful, I asked for a brake from traveling so much, they didn’t listen. They don’t care. I had a child and ask to have a week off to help my wife transition to home but the install manager only gave me the weekend off. Asked for a raise and was told to get more certifications. Horrible!

Depending on the department, there is much to learn although some departments of the company are very seperate. Management seems to care little about anything other than the bottom line but is willing to hear complaints out. Many co-workers are quite friendly and good friendships can be built. Learning about new technology is part of the job but most of it is only for commercial use.

Troxell is a very solid place to work and offered a great learning experience for me.
A typical day involves setting up customer visits, attending manufacturers sales presentations, producing customer quotes, processing of PO's and typical customer service related functions.
Normal amount of CRM related activities and every day is different.
