Veterans Trading Company

As a seasoned professional, I had great expectations of this organization, but quickly learned not to expect much from this dysfunctional company.  The lack of mentoring, coaching, and training was frustrating and led to a confused and unorganized staff.  Supposedly this organization has a focus on Lean Enterprises, unfortunately this is not the case.  This company talks a great game, but fails to execute, and leaves their staff open to fault and management is quick to point fingers.  Management spends a great deal of its time justifying their jobs, focuses little on staff development, and did not show any powerful traits necessary for successful managers.  The positions offered by this company are best filled by individuals with little experience or by individuals counting their days until retirement.  I say this because those in their prime will soon realize that there is not any true path for advancement or success within this organization.  During my short tenure with this company I witnessed numerous disabled, retired, combat veterans get laid off, so do not buy into the organizations claim to support such veterans (in one instance they decimated their veteran staff by more then half).  If you are seeking an entry level position to gain experience, or are within two years of retirement, this company is for you.

Balance of predictability in a diverse office, with an environment that is always changing in rules and systems. By being highly self motivated and driven I have earned the opportunity to advance through positions at an accelerated rate. With a back ground in a competitive sales world, to the customer focused coffee culture I was given the chance to combine both skill sets to coordinate and assist in planning part procurement schedules for Boeing airline customers. The hardest part of the job was not being allowed to talk to my co-workers. Although that gave me the opportunity to fully enjoy my favorite part, your success is truly in your own hands. Management is under a lot of change but it looks like it is heading in a good direction. I learned so many skills that will help me understand future computer systems.

When I was first hired on I was told full time with mandatory overtime, yet they send you home at least once a week because they don’t have work to do, and you automatically have every other Friday off, so you’re always going to miss at least 1-2 days on a pay check. The bosses are nice except everyone is super close and everyone complains about everyone. I was constantly worried about my job because of people saying I messed up work. You have people in the back playing corn hole, and then those same people pick apart your work. 

They operate on a very low ethics model. They'll hire people knowing that theyre going to terminate them in several weeks and will make you wait a month or more to start. Low salary for the role matched with very high expectations. A lot of Nepotism, its family owned and family managed. The only way that you'll be hired and possess job security is if your someones son or daughter. 

I was hired on as a temp but was promised to stay on full time but at the last minute they decided otherwise.Most of the employees are great to work with 2 of them are horrible ignorant and rude and take advantage of the place they take alot of smoke breaks. I feel it should be a smoke free place of employment.

Laid back morning meeting, but very productive focused. Small business culture despite mid-sized presence. Adaptable and willing to hear and take consideration of other's opinions from all levels

I loved it there. The people were friendly and the management was awesome. They worked with me and helped me in ways that no one else has. The pay was great and the hours were easy to finish. The only reason I left was because of lay-offs.

A company that was just starting up, had to get some bugs worked out but all in all it was a learning experience. Great  group of people to work with as we all help each other to fiigure out the best practices to ensure delivery of product.

The culture was a fast paced management team that had to respond to constantly changing customer demand.  The management team at the facility had a good grasp on the how to run the business.  Most everyone viewed everyone else a member of their family.

Working with this company contracting through Boeing was my dream job. If I had them chance to return I would. The atmosphere was pleasant, group friendly people in and out of our group, overall good place to work.
