Laborde Products, Inc.

My role is responsible for receiving requests for parts from service technicians and entering the parts on the corresponding jobs. Laborde Products has 3 locations and each location has a service department. I am responsible for all 3 departments, but I am physically located at 1. 

This position was brand new when I applied and hired into it. I have had no guidance because the assumption from management was that since I was a technician- I should be able to figure out the most efficient process for how the position functions. 

The management has become increasingly hostile towards employees like myself; who have been with the company for a while and understand that the current culture/views are very contradictory to what the company use to stand for and operate by. 

The hardest part of my job and most other support roles is a lack of communication, understanding, and execution of change. The company has many avenues for suggestions for better operating procedures, yet the management will either take credit for the ideas or will agree with the suggestions, but fail to implement any positive changes. 

The most enjoyable part of the job is being able to help technicians become more efficient. When the technicians are more efficient, that means the customer is getting better service and results. Ultimately, my satisfaction is the customer getting the best service and results- no matter how small.

I recently joined this company after leaving a toxic work environment, and the difference has been night and day. From the very beginning, I felt welcomed, respected, and appreciated for what I bring to the table.

The leadership team is approachable and genuinely supportive. Communication is open, feedback is constructive, and there's a strong sense of collaboration across teams. It's clear that employee well-being and professional growth are top priorities here.

The work environment is positive, inclusive, and energizing—something that’s hard to come by. I’m grateful to be part of a company that not only values its employees but actively invests in creating a culture where people can thrive.

If you’re looking for a company that treats its employees well and fosters real growth, I highly recommend applying.

What is the best part of working at the company?
5:00pm, worst part, 8:00am.
President is immature, and vindictive.



What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
8:00am, arriving each day is very stressful.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Culture of C. Y. A.
Three strikes, you are out.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Walking on eggshells.
Never feeling truly part of the company.

President, very immature and unprofessional. Terminated for customer service issue, fair enough.     Seven months after termination at a restaurant the "PRESIDENT" of this company actually shot me a half cocked smirk over his shoulder in my direction. Speaks volumes of the man. His father is a fair and appreciative man. The son, not so much

It’s nice to work with a group of people that you can trust and know that you can rely on for whatever you may need.
The positive culture was refreshing even in tough times, and made the days go by much easier.
Most enjoyable part of the job was seeing every division work together to take care of a customer, and having that customer realize the dedication that a small company like Laborde just devoted toward them.

I was available  24/365 the marine business is always moving.
Direct management was not the best.
I did all of the dispatching and billing as well as customer service for the depot.
As always the hardest part of the job was keeping the customer and techs happy.

Cover yourself. Happy to bring you in. Happy to walk you out. No job security for no one less than tenured employees. Parts department is dysfunctional and the director does not care about his team. Also if you are looking to GROW your career you can forget that.

Very fair company. The owner does care about his employees and shows it as often as he can. You work hard and always get rewarded in some way. Very little turn over here. If you want to work for a great company then make sure and apply. You will be very happy you did.

CEO operates as a dictator.  Professes a culture of growth and development of employees, but rules as a micro-manger in which he will quickly remind each that they are replaceable.

Best company culture that I have experienced. Fast growing company that focuses on their employees and customers. 
The work life balance is great and I feel like I am part of a team
