Parrish Tire Company

The Parrish Tire company as a whole is decent. The only problem is how they pay employees. One new employee, could start out at $11hr, or $13hr. Seems okay until you see people that have been working there for 8 years get paid the same. It’s not about performance of the employee because the one I’m thinking of is the best in the shop. It doesn’t make since. They aren’t on SS either. Another problem I see is firing certain people in roles that are needed for the shop and not having someone else to take their place. Miscommunication or none at all is also another problem I see at about every shop I go to. The good things are, most people are nice enough to help you if you ask. The management beyond the shops are great but more communication would be helpful. Drama is everywhere in any job, which was expected when I was hired. All in all, it’s a great surrounding and great employees to work with. All management I spoke with are very nice and understanding people.

It was a fun experience learning so much about tires and how there  re paired and fixed from the inside and out. I've learned that there are at least 20 different types of tire treads  for different types of tires. I've learned how to operate a re tread machine and use a standard forklift loading and unloading tires. It was a good learning environment good helping employees that were willing to teach you more so you can feel in for somebody if there not there because you know how to run there machine or area. The management was good very cool open minded and was ready to listen to anything you had on your mind . The hardest part was learning the chamber  set up to cook the tires , but in no time it was a piece of cake. The most enjoyable part of the job was the co-workers everyday going in was like school because I learned something new everyday and it was fun doing it

Parrish isn't set up for a long term career. The work is easy and laid back for the hours of 7 to 12 pm but after that things get hectic. Customer focus is a must at places but at Parrish it's taken to the extreme an things end up getting changed so much to compensate for their needs that other things end up being done wrong. Certain salesmen on multiple occasions he been known to do shady things. Such as tires randomly going missing to the point its a running joke in the warehouse. An inventory is never right while they turn around and say the employees just can't count. Pay is no where close to being fair across the bored where new employees always come in making 2 to 3 dollars more then the older ones. It's so bad that last year all but 2 of the 6 supervisors quit at the same time taking half of the employees with them. If you want a job Parrish is just that no different form McDonald's or KFC not a place to make money and retire

The hours and schedule are the only positive attributes. The pay and cost of insurance are both horrible. The work environment is negative and you're treated as beneath management and sales if you're in the warehouse or a driver. The guy that's over the whole place is a ticking time bomb of emotions, it doesn't even have to be work related if something happens that upsets him (which is just about daily) everybody will pay. You can work there for years and never get a raise and they'll hire new people for the same role as yours and pay them more from day 1 but laugh at you if you ask for a raise. Overall undesirable place to work.

Culture
Office guys were great and the warehouse guys were cool.

Overall
Atrocious, would not recommend for anyone wanted to make a living or have a home life.

I am a self-motivated person that can see task that need to be completed and will proceed without being told. On a day to day business I worked closely with all co-workers and the president of the company. I would check for phone message throughout the day and I would handle complaints or whatever the need was. I would enter and review Accounts Payable on a daily basis .  Check run would be completed once a week.
