Northern Safety Company

This place is like high school. The drama is insane and management loves to participate. They treat you very unfairly. If you have children forget about taking them to the doctors. Even with vacation/sick time you will be written up. They make rude remarks about your appearance, they keep you trapped in one position, and they refuse to give you a decent raise. I would not recommend working for this company. There is no room for growth. If you have a question they will make you feel stupid. If you make a mistake everyone will know about it. Good luck if you decide to work here..they come off as genuine people but they are not.

Management promotes gossip and poor leadership. Fellow employees allowed to poor mouth others on the team with no consequence in the present of management. No mentorship given. No room for advancement. Overall a toxic work environment. You can not voice any objection or have a differing opinion without retaliation. If you did- Management (and others) would micromanage to find fault in your work. Overall - Probably the worst professional work experience I have had to date.

Learned alot of computer programs that I didn't even know existed. My co-workers were not only job aquaintences, they became my family, as I had one of the hardest years of my life and they were always there to encourage me and lift me up. The hardest part of my job was talking to people on the phone that didn't really want to talk to me. The most enjoyable part of my job was talking to people on the phone who were friendly. I talked to people from every part of the world so I felt like I was traveling and experiencing these places by just sitting at my desk and talking to those people.

Working at Northern Safety was my most favorite jobs I ever worked at. Although I lost my job due to lack of work The CEO of the company did every thing he could to keep from having to go to those measures. This was a fun easy going atmosphere to work in. When your employees are happy your customers seem to happy as well. I got along with all my co-workers, even making friends along the way.
There honestly was not much to hard to get through, as long as you were doing what you were suppose to. 
 I loved that at this company, you always seemed to feel like you were part of a family per say

My position is very stressful. I am playing multiple roles in the company and only being compensated for one. The departments are always butting heads and no one seems to want to work together.
Insubordination is tolerated and sometimes even encouraged. Management is quick to let us know how good of a month, quarter, week we had but then says we have no money in the budget when it comes time for a bonus or raise. It is a good stepping stone for those that want to gain knowledge about sales and the industry. I had predicted this being my lifelong career path but things didn't work out that way.

I never once noticed someone not enjoying themselves while there. The company doesn't beat around the bush with it's investment in their associates. They by all means advocate the enrichment of associates including continuing education through certificates. To boot, supervisors and administration are very accessible to associates should they have questions or want to learn more. The systems administrators and my managers were very receptive to my questions and desire to learn more about operations at Northern Safety & Industrial.

This was one of the best places that I have ever worked in my entire life. I would recommend this place to anyone. this is more like a family instead of coworkers.  This company will work with your schedule when it comes to your children.  They are interested in your life not only while your at work but also when you are off the clock. you can always go in and feel free at Northern Safety. When you have a job that you are able to wake up each morning and go to and be excited about then it no longer becomes a job. Its more like getting paid for a hobby,

Northern Safety has a laid back but productive company culture. They treat their employees well, and as a result people stay there for a long time. They do promote from within. The departments work well together cross-functionally and the company keeps up with software/hardware to make it easier to do your job.
