MB TRACTOR & EQUIPMENT

Overall, the normal individuals that work there and do not hold management positions are fine.

The ones that do hold the management positions have only been put in these positions because they are personal friends with the owner. They really don't have any management training or background. They basically wing it every day in their positions and try to make their employees feel less superior to them. They always pass the buck back to the average employee when something goes wrong. Especially the Operations Manager. He will accuse you of not doing your job, ream you out in front of everyone, and then when you prove him wrong in a very professional manner, he just gets up and walks away, not admitting he was wrong and not apologizing. Then the next week, you more than likely will be without a job.

If I was the owner of this company, I would seriously revaluate the individuals that hold these management positions and clean house on some of them. He should bring in some new, fresh blood and ideas to grow and maintain his business. He should definitely get rid of the HR Manager and the Operations Manager. They are totally useless.

I can only speak for the Tilton location. On a typical day, work could be either good or just average depending on the circumstances. My colleagues were consistently friendly and supportive, which made my time there more enjoyable.

Management has a particular way of doing things, and changes in direction can sometimes create an inconsistent work environment. I had significant concerns with how HR handled employee matters. In my experience, there was a lack of transparency, consistency, and professionalism in decision-making, which made it difficult to feel supported as an employee. I believe this contributed to the high turnover rate at this location.

Overall, management and HR practices need substantial improvement to create a more stable and fair work environment.

One positive was that on the last Friday of each month, they would provide pizza, which was a nice gesture for the team.

When my employment ended, it came as a surprise, as I felt I consistently fulfilled my responsibilities and was not given clear feedback leading up to that decision.

The culture within this organization is horrible. Condescending managers, no teamwork, everyone is negative and dislike their job. You are just a peon there simply to serve a basic unfulfilling purpose. Expect to be overworked and underpaid, the only individuals that make a good income are upper management or a select few outside salesmen. Upper management is a tight knit group with connections to the owner.  They do not accept new people. It's a free for all, dog eat dog company. Management may come across as your friend but keep your guard up. This is not the company for you if you are looking to make a career. It is a company to get a paycheck and some work experience. Don't expect raises or upward mobility. Don't expect to influence any change. There is an incredibly high turnover rate for a reason. I made some good friends at the company, but none of them stuck it out for very long. It's too bad really.

They will promise you the world to take a job here, as soon as you ask for them to come through it's excuses after excuses. Store manager sleeps in his office and will go behind your back and lie to the higher ups to make himself look better. You can beg for help and they will write it off like nothing and then wonder why they Cannot keep an employee. Terrible company to work for. As a service manager for this company I made less a year than the lowest tech in my department. I begged for a writer because I needed help, I was told no repeatedly and after letting me go because I could not keep up they are hiring for a manager AND a writer. Terrible pay and they ask to much of their employees. One of the biggest mistakes of my life coming here! They promise the world and don't come through!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Good company to work for overall. They pay fair and as long as you do your job, no issues.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Saturdays are not mandated to techs, but one tech is required to be in the shop on Saturday. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work environment is pretty laid back for most, fast pace for others.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Depends on the work flow, could do a basic service, could be changing an engine. Variety is good.

What is the best part of working at the company?
None. Job was the worst job I ever had

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When the owner  showed up at closing time. Everyone  had to scramble 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Horrible.  Managers  complain about each other constantly.  The guy who trained me was a blowhard and didn't know how to handle  customers 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Listening to moron employees  complain. One guy giggles like a little girl  all day long and the hours were brutal

What is the best part of working at the company?
Pizza last Friday of month with the store staff


What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not much Support from corporate. There seems to be many bosses as store managers don’t really manage entire store

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Starts off friendly but is really very toxic


What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Start at 730am and end at 530pm not much time for anything else

The raw truth is you’ll never be trained, you’ll never get a pay increase (no matter WHAT you are told), you will have NO work life balance what so ever, you will never get a performance review to even know what you can work on and you’ll be discarded as quickly as you were hired because no one truly cares.  Work ANYWHERE else.

A hometown dealership that only cares about its sales and not employees. While working at MB expect to have no help or support from the upper management team. All upper management is friends with the owner, it’s a “good old boy club”. You’ll have poor work equipment unless your from the Tilton or Plaistow store. The corporation believes it’s a larger than life entity that rules do not apply to them. 

Your experience really depends on what location you are working at. I know from experience that the Eliot store (Somersworth soon) is a lot better than others. I would take what other people say about the company with a grain of salt. The Eliot store is a lot better for a work environment than I have heard from the other locations. They take care of each other.
