Whew, dont know where to start.

The insurance is as good as not having any. You cant take off around a holiday EVER . The managment team has a bully mind set, rather than a motivating way of managing. They care zero about you and do not mind telling you so. The work life balance is NONE. Again they do not care.

The only way you get any respect is being in their circle of who you know. Its so frustrating and mind blowing. 

Benfits are horrible. The isnurance, time off  you earn is thrown in your face or trying to use it. Holidays you have to kill yourself for that day off before hand. 

Unless you are desperate do not go to work here. That place need a overhaul and some motivational team to come in and treat them how to treat employees.

Also once you are hired in you do not get a raise. Merit or cost of living, be warned.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The environment everyone was really nice and friendly. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not much training. It’s kind of a fake it until you make it after a certain point
 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It was amazing. Everyone was super friendly and helpful if you needed it. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Arrive around 8am coffee in hand. Head to my office check emails. Make sales calls process payments etc. go to lunch around 12-1. Come back and handle whatever comes your way until it’s time to go. It’s really laid back and peaceful. One of the best jobs I ever had. I really loved it.

If you can't handle long hours on your feet, this job is most certainly not for you. On a side note, start preparing for the night shift because you will lose sleep. The shift starts at 4:00 p.m. and is over when all the work is done whether it's 11:00 p.m. or 7:00 a.m. Although, I did learn how to drive a forklift which was interesting and exciting. I also learned how better to get along with people in a workplace setting. On the downside, until all orders were filled and everything was cleaned up, not a single person could leave. That meant if you had coworkers who didn't care and messed around, you had to suffer for them. But, when you got the paycheck, it evened out.

I work part time, and I am happy that I found this job with Mitchell. I like the people that I work with. The management people that I work for do as good a job as the all of the management people that I worked with in the past. Our jobs would be easier if more of our co-workers had a better team attitude. Many of the people that I have seen quit and leave Mitchell are not happy here, and will probably not be happy at their next job. Many of us were happy when they left.

 I learned a long time ago that a lot of the unhappiness in my life was inside of me and changing things on the outside did not help. 



Pros:
Great leadership team that truly values employees and fosters a collaborative, supportive environment.
Strong commitment to professional growth and development opportunities.
Positive company culture with a focus on continuous improvement.
Good communication and transparency from leadership, which builds trust and engagement.

Cons:
Honestly, very few. Like any growing organization, there are occasional challenges with scaling processes, but leadership actively works to address them.

Advice to Management:
Keep doing what you’re doing. Your focus on people and culture makes this an enjoyable place to work. Continue investing in employee experience and development as the company grows.

You make salary so they don’t care if you work 40 or 70 hours a week. You go to your boss with a problem and you get told that it will be fixed but it never gets fixed. If your stops get loaded wrong they tell you do your best with it. Load crew does no wrong, they want you to show proof of load crew messing up and you do and nothing changes. Some people get off at lunch and then some don’t get off till well after 5 and then you have to be back at work by 6 the next day

I worked here in the summer of 2019 as a warehouse picker and learned how to operate a forklift. It was night shift from 4 pm. The warehouse pickers couldn't clock out until literally everything was done, picking, cleaning etc. One supervisor would always remind us how replaceable we were which I found rather unprofessional. Another manager even warned me about the rate of turnover during my first job interview. When I left, they withheld my last paycheck until I returned 3 work shirts. I happily made the exchange they requested.
