KR Wolfe

.  Work can be interesting at times. Work mainly in hospital OR's as third party for equipment manufacturer. Management only focused on keeping them happy, you are expendable no matter how good a Technician you may be. Most of Techs are good people but the need to constantly be in self preservation mode limits any sense of teamwork because you cannot trust anyone. Travel can be fun, except for the cheap economy last minute airline tickets that have you in the last row middle seat. No upgrades allowed. Lower tier hotels where you can often be entertained by the local homeless in the area. DO NOT work here you will regret it in the end. Also weak per diem and no training except OJT. You fly with your tools but company will not pay for overweight bags so you get 50pds including Pelican Case which weighs 21pds by itself. It is not a long term company just a way the owners have found to pay for the vacations and parties.

This was a great company, through them I learned and experienced a lot. There is no such thing as a typical day because everyday there was something new. I don't mean that in a bad way, I mean more in the way that you always find a new challenge to over come such as there is nothing to cut the studs with to make them flush to the ceiling for the boom. Or the electricians forgot to pipe us a conduit, how do we over come this obstacle. 

Management was great and always took care of you. They were always willing to accommodate you considering you where on the road 2-3 weeks at a time.

The hardest part of the job is being away for so long. I don't mind flying or driving, or even the long hours because I was always traveling on a full stomach thanks to the generous per diem they have.

I've only worked for KR Wolfe for 3 months, they are very supportive and care about the employees. A typical work would consist of de-install/install lights, upgrade a router or installing a boom. 
I have learned how important for me to think quality at each project to ensure clients satisfaction and the care of their patients
There is a open door policy to management and they are a phone call away if needed, the hardest part of the job is not adhering to procedures and protocol. The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing the work performed that will make the client happy with the end results.

Pros: The only positive about this company is that employees are very friendly and can get to each other like brothers and sisters.


Cons: The upper management bullies their employees and immediately fires them if something went wrong without investigating what really happened. They never allow their regular employees to give their opinion and points instead make them feel inferior. In short, some of the upper management here are bullies. How can employees love their job and company if the management itself makes it hard for them.

PROS: nice colleagues bonding, It's likely the main factor that keeps workers here.

CONS: KR Wolfe consists of rude, inconsiderate and incompetent leaders with lack any knowledge on how to maintain a steady workforce or working environment. There's no sense of loyalty and stability in this company, you will be treated as a disposable member of the team regardless of your work or commitment. They were always quick to say "you're doing this wrong, you're doing that wrong". I would not recommend anyone to work here.

There are some really smart people who stick around, I have never in my life seen a company ran like this. Be prepared for massive toxic environment, microaggression and micromanagement. You're forever made to feel you have a target on your back. Salaries are not in line with industry standard, no pay raises, lack of opportunities within the company, etc. Worst working experience of my entire life hands down.

The management admits having unclear vision and company direction. It makes working here confusing because you don't know what to focus on at the moment. Working here can cause anxiety because you don't have job security and you don't know the company's plans for continuity or longevity. I hope one day all these things would change for the better and the management would just sit down and talk about the company's future, then share it to employees for us to also be aware of where we stand.

Talk about a lost company that doesn't value their employees. They turn and burn employees like crazy, every week there is someone else being fired. People who were hard working and great to be around. All the employees get along, however upper management is always making drastic changes. Everyone is un-easy wondering if they are next. Do yourself a favor and run!

The management style was aggressive and they go out of their way to make it harder for you. To progress or develop career here you must be overtly friendly with management. Overall, it was toxic environment due to bad leadership and extreme micromanagement. They want your to work your life away for below industry pay and worthless policy that constantly change. People become jaded and are forced to quit out of frustration.

its an okay company if you don't mind your money not being consistent. work 12 hours 1 week and 30 another. can go weeks without work. perdiem is $50 a day which is under FED min of $55 a day. they pay hotel but my biggest problem was hours and last minute cancelations left me not working a week sometimes 2 week in a row.
