Traxxas

Traxxas varies greatly based on the manager you get, some will be on your side and some will only be out for themselves. Managers take credit for subordinates accomplishments in order to advance themselves. If you try to go around your manager, they will find a reason to fire you. There are upper management issues, but I'm not sure the owners realize it. The owners seem like nice people and I believe they do try, but the company is divided into upper management and not upper management with a few other favorites around the building and if you are not upper management, you do not seem to benefit much. Traxxas will pass you up for a promotion to hire from outside the company. Traxxas is not a remote friendly workplace unless you or your manager are a VIP. There are a lot of good people working at Traxxas, but there are fewer every day as they leave for a less toxic environment.  

I genuinely enjoyed my time in this role. From the start, I felt welcomed and supported by both colleagues and management. The work environment was professional yet relaxed, which made it easy to stay motivated and focused. I appreciated the clear structure in daily tasks, but also the flexibility to take initiative and improve processes where possible.

The role challenged me in a good way and allowed me to develop new skills while strengthening the ones I already had. I learned a lot about teamwork, responsibility, and working toward shared goals. Communication was generally clear, and feedback was constructive, which helped me grow and perform better over time.

Overall, it was a positive experience that contributed to both my professional and personal development. I liked the job, the people, and the sense of progress I felt while working there, and I would recommend it to others looking for a solid and rewarding work experience.

This should be a really fun and rewarding job but is frustrating because of unnecessary internal conflicts.  Practically hostile relationship between departments and friction between sales manager and staff made things overly stressful and difficult to build trust with customers.  Decisions and rollouts were often heavy handed and poorly executed which completely undermined the sales reps' relationship with their customers.  This is a shame because this company was built on customer service and used to be able to take pride in being #1 in the industry but now they are perceived as being bullies and out of touch with their retailer partners because of sales managers' inexperience and lack of direction.  

The employees and middle management respect one another and try to work together. For the most part it is a great place to work.  As long as you don't do anything to get on the upper management radar.  Stay away from anyone up the chain and you should be safe, as long as you do your job.  Many changes have happened over the last two years.  Some good, some not, and some things are basically the same.  Number one complaints:  Lack of Communication and Fear of Communicating with the top level managers. They say they have open door policy but in truth they are not all that open.

Hopefully one day the right changes will happen for all the great people that are there.  This company really could be so much better.

Managers stare at you all day,a lot of the time there is nothing to pull at the end of the week which means there is really nothing to do but the management still expects you to pull the same number of part as if it were busy. No matter how hard you work if you don’t know upper management or they don’t see you as part of there click you will never be put in a place for advancement they would rather hire one of there buddies or even family members for the higher positions rather than an employee who’s been need with the company longer and know more about the products and doesn’t need any training to do the job. 


Please stay far far away from this awful work place unless you like wasting time or you are related/know the management then your set.

My first week I trained myself by watching others around me, I asked questions to co-workers who also trained themselves so that made it harder to correct mistakes. After working there I realized the warehouse only promote from the outside, unless you were apart of the select few who were the supervisiors favorite,  which they decide the first day you walk in, they don't greet you either. They just stare, very intensely. I tried speaking to several supervisors and when they ignored me or said things that were unprofessional , the excuse was because " that just how they are. " I reported how I felt to HR but nothing was ever done.  They don't care about indiviuals because most come from a Temp agency and will get replaced eventually.

It's a small company that sometimes suffers from that fact. On the warehouse side there's next to no possibility of moving up, which means where you start is likely where you'll stay. Most of the people here are decent but there are the exceptions. Benefits are some of the best that I've ever had and the job is relatively simple. 
Cons are the fact that this place suffers from the ever moving goal post. Things are constantly changing and being reversed. Standards and how they are enforced change from shift to shift, even within the same department. And some of the practices here are questionable. 

Overall it's a okay job that has it's perks but it also has cons. 

Management and their "open door" policies are a joke. If you have a problem and go to HR their response is to terminate your employment. There is little to no work life balance. As well Management will hold your sick time and PTO against you when determining raises and bonuses. If you question any decision you risk losing your job. As well this company encourages employees to lie to customers about the quality of their products.

Poor management, no room for real growth.  Owner acts like he cares about the employees but he definitely doesn't.  Even the HR people leave because they don't agree with lying to employees.   This place seems like it's a dream job... to work with cool toys, get a huge discount, awesome looking building.  That's where it ends.  The building is a joke, 90% of the people working there hate their jobs.  Yes I said jobs!  You work multiple jobs all the time and are expected to complete your work on time even if being pulled in different directions.

I had a successful career until this company. The owner is a spoon fed child of the man who created the company. It all starts out with big promises. Fun company they say. Technology they say. Great benefits they say. We rarely hire anyone so gifted they say. Your experience is amazing they say. 

If you have a successful job. Don’t leave it for this company. You will be over worked. Under paid. Even if you are compliant and do a good job you will most likely be fired before you ever get that first raise. Dumpster fire of a company. No
