I have also independently gone above and beyond the job requirements by creating spreadsheet order forms for J-Hooks for faster ordering, spreadsheets for locating any J-Hook item for misplaced/newly ordered items, and created maps and instructions for my position as a pass down for anyone relieving me for vacation or for replacement. My attendance was paramount.  
My co-workers were fun to work with.  The hardest part of the job was the pay.  I was paid per case and display set up.  I was constantly told that the average person lasted two weeks in my position.  My loyalty and hard work impressed my co-workers as well as management and my boss.

Comptroller can be rude and demanding. However he does get things done.

I enjoyed my time at S&K and the opportunities they provided. I learned the military culture and how to navigate through the systems and culture of AAFES, Navy, Marines and Commissary business.

There is limited opportunity for promotion into other areas because the company runs lean.

I found my associates to be helpful and enjoyed working with field sales to help them solve problems and make their jobs more enjoyable. 

My immediate manager was the main reason I stayed for eight years. I found him engaging, compassionate, and able to show us how to look at the big picture and break it down to small components.

First came there as a temporary employee. I liked it as first. People were friendly.  I soon learned that management had their pets.  I started getting picked on for everything. I had "pets" going to tell management on anything I did that they didn't like.  I worked here from 2005 until 2019 when I got let go because my department was being dissolved. They didn't try to find me a job.  I was 60 when I got let go so it was very difficult to find another job.  I just ended up getting SS at 62 and calling it a day. I worked so hard for these people.  I had 40 years of work experience and at previous employments had gotten awards. I would not advise anyone to work here,. When I left I hadn't gotten a raise in over 5 years. 

This company does not appreciate its employees. The workload is extreme for the amount of time that is needed to get it done. After switching over to a new system everything went downhill. All departments were affected. What was supposed to Alleviate work, turned out to have 2 to 3 times more of the workload. This caused many employees to quit. I would not recommend this company to anyone if they are looking for a financial comfort or advancement. Also the majority of the office employees are very unprofessional and always negative! Foul language, sloppy dress attire and no support for one another.

If you are looking for a company that allows you to put your family first, you found it! The company was cery flexible, especially during the pandemic for me. Some positions do not have the opportunity to work from home, but some do and it is great. Benefits are standard but the compensation is lacking. Pay is not balanced, performance reviews are few and far between and raises are non-existent for many. It is an excellent stepping stone job to gain additional experience. 

No professional development, tuition reimbursement or upward mobility. 

The support staff have always been the best part of this company.  There's definitely a sense of family in the trenches.  The company is family owned, and while the family oriented part of the culture vanished for a while, they're starting to bring it back.  Advancement opportunities are rare to non-existent.  Open positions within the company are no longer advertised in-house, so only the hand selected are promoted.  

S&K Sales is a great job if you are just out of school and what to start your career off in Accounting. It is not what you would think and company would be that have accounting clerks. I learned a lot working here. Management from the start was great. Then management changed and it is not a place that is enjoyable to work. My co-worker are wonderful to work with. They all work as a team. 

If you are looking for a job where you don't have to work a second one, then is not the company for you.

Most of the people who work there are nice, and friendly. However the pay for the amount of work truly sucks. No advancement opportunity truly...they will tell you its a lateral move so as not to pay you any more money. The managers have a habit of when things go wrong not taking the blame and firing someone beneath them and blame it on that person. Best part of the job is just the freebies...thats ALL!  STEER CLEAR!!  You have been warned...this is just putting it mildly about this company...I could say more!

A typical 9-5 job.  Different divisions within a department.  Manager developed a system to help you as an individual to understand your job within a short period of time.  Also helped to develop more skills to the position.  Had to be a fast learner.  Everyone had their individual responsibilities.  However, there was also a team effort.  Worked closely with other departments to see project to its completion.  Time management enforced.  Enjoyed the customer service aspect with clientele.
