This is not a great place to work.

Pros

The only reason to work here would be to get some experience in the landscape industry or in administrative work, if it was convenient and you don't have any better options.

Cons

This is a small, privately owned landscape contractor with some pretty big accounts in Lake County, but they have consistently lost their best, long term employees because of the way they treat them. Lack of respect, management paranoia, and a nasty habit of spying on employees instead of developing them leaves them without a loyal or productive group of employees.

Pros

Always has hours. Affordable bennifits

Cons

Very disorganized. Expect you to drop everything on your days off to work. Idea of family meens nothing to this company. Regardless of weather they want you out there. Unsafe equipment gets sent out.

Pros

The support staff is very nice. Executives always seemed approachable. Gives back to the community and HR has good employee programs.

Cons

The expectations are always way too high for a human. Expect to do at lest 3 full time job loads, get criticized by your manager for not being able to keep up and not get get paid nearly enough for the treatment you will receive. HR dept seemed distant and confidentiality did not exist. Lower management was obsessed with doing anything to look good to upper management and never created a good working environment for employees to stand out on their own. Discrimination exists in positions. Not enough training for positions across the board.
