Cantey Foundation Specialists

A typical day at work offers a decently structured routine, that I have established, in my roll. I often find opportunities to contribute my efforts to the business beyond my department. It provides a platform for personal growth, skill development, and the chance to make a positive impact in my department and the company as a whole.

Work is an ongoing learning journey. Each day presents opportunities to expand my knowledge and skillset, both in my specific job role and in more general areas like problem-solving, time management, and interpersonal skills. 

Through the constant support of our management team I have seen provided guidance, a nurturing work environment, fostered innovation, and help for employees to reach their full potential. 

Cantey has a very positive workplace culture which helps make every day at work enjoyable. I feel appreciated, engaged, and motivated. I believe this culture leads to my increased productivity and a sense of belonging.

Challenges at work are opportunities for growth and development. The hardest parts of my job provides me a chance to stretch my skills, overcome obstacles, and demonstrate resilience. I personally have recently experienced unexpected changes in my schedule which is a challenge for me as I typically prefer following through with my plans once they're in place. However, facing challenges head-on can be immensely rewarding and help me become a more skilled and adaptable professional.

The most enjoyable aspects of a job often revolve around the sense of accomplishment, personal fulfillment, and positive relationships. When I derive satisfaction from completing my tasks, helping others, or working alongside supportive colleagues, it can create a sense of joy and purpose in my work.

In summary, work can be a source of my personal and professional growth, fulfillment, and satisfaction. Embracing the positive aspects of a typical workday, ongoing learning, effective management, a vibrant workplace culture, overcoming challenges, and enjoying the fruits of my labor can all contribute to a rewarding and enriching work experience.

I worked for two years at this comapny and poured blood sweat and tears for them.  I was one of the top system design specialists there based off my numbers, sold some of the largest projects in company history, and actively bought into their so called culture.  They are so high on themselves and care only about themselves.  They have a "one team" mentality there and by that I mean you sacrifice for the company, the company will not do anything to sacrifice for you.  They expect the world from you both during work hours and after.  Not only that they try and not pay you for jobs if you don't pay attention.  I have calculated that they owe me close $8,000 in commissions.  The upstate leadership is far and away the worst of any of the branches.  The head of the upstate thinks he is gods greatest gift to the earth and can't admit when he screws up.  I had to take the fall for his mistake, and by had to I mean he swept me under the rug one morning before anybody knew what was happening.  Overall if this company would actually practice what they preach they would be an awesome company but the majority of management only cares about what you can do for them, not what they can do for their employees.

If you have a great mindset, you will feel right at home at Cantey.  Everyday I feel fulfilled with a busy but productive schedule, and I am pushed to be the best version of myself.  My manager is awesome.  She allows me to flourish with projects and activities that I enjoy so that I may succeed.

We have a lot of company events, including a monthly Appreciation Day with volleyball games, corn hole, darts and pool, and a fridge full of beer.  We also have a family event in the fall for everyone to gather and see their life outside of work.

Company also believes in self-improvement.  So if you don't like to read (or listen) to books about personal and professional growth, this place is probably not for you.

The hardest part of the job is time management because we are growing so quickly, it's hard to find time to finish it all!

Cantey has invested so much time and money into both my professional and  personal development. Not only am I constantly given the tools to be successful at work, but also as a husband, father and man. Yes the pay is great but also, the person I’ve become will pay off in every aspect of life. The leadership team is top notch and really focuses on investing back into each employee (as long as you have a learners and growth mindset). The culture is unmatched and everyone I work with is a high performing go getter! We work hard but we also celebrate hard! Working for Cantey has been one of the greatest decisions in my life both financially and emotionally. 

A typical day at work is pretty busy, talking with candidates and informing them about the value they would add to the company and what Cantey could really do for them. A core value of Cantey is "Changing the life experience for families and communities."
Something I have learned while working for Cantey is to read for knowledge, there is a great amount of learning you can get from books. The management is friendly, and very communicative. The hardest part of the job is learning new processes, the most enjoyable part of the job is the social events, being able to have a good time as a community or a family in a sense instead of just being a part of a company. 

This is a place to work if you enjoy work social events, getting your family involved, weekend community outreach, and unlimited opportunities for self growth. This company expects the best from their employees, in order to give the customers the best. You will work hard, sometimes on the weekends, but with that- you "get what you give. " There is always mandatory trainings/meetings, high standards, and large expectations. If you aren't willing to dig deep, and constantly be in the space to improve yourself for your team- you should not work here. This company values its employees, it's customers and the community they work in. This is not your normal construction company with the reputation you would expect. 

This company says they are all about company culture but they really aren’t. They say they are a family - they might be but a dysfunctional one at best. They have a huge turnover rate….50% of people hired are gone within the first year.  If you make suggestions in casual conversations in an effort to brainstorm with coworkers, it is considered gossip and you’ll be terminated. Owner is arrogant and the truth is the only thing he cares about is the bottom line. Go work for the competition if you want real job security, a great company culture, good pay & benefits. If you don’t quit you will be fired for something.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people and the culture, and the fact the owner wants all his employees to have self improvement personally and professionally 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Keeping the high standard and the pressure of sales and keeping my guys motivated 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great people great friends like a family 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Wide open talking with customers to schedule installation and designing a solution

High turnover of employees (involuntary), long hours, yet very little loyalty, compensation, and/or job security.  Don’t expect to retire from
this company, you’ll be let go after 3 years tops even if you are a top performer.   Unprofessionally run as HR announces individuals impacted by layoffs to all fellow associates BEFORE respectfully notifying the individuals who are impacted first.  Several extra-martial affairs in the office.  Scandalous! 

Cantey is very driven to live by it's mission, purpose, and values. The mission "to provide life-changing experiences". It's purpose, to "redefine our industry". It's values, "1 team, 1 passion, 1 experience, 1 community". It is a great place to work. Family like environment, everyone works together to bring out the best in each other and reach both individual goals and team goals. There is continuous training available. You are encouraged to grow. There are a lot of company events.
