Columbia Distributing Company reviews

Agree with the other reviews that they over work you and under pay you! Other companies pay around $16 an hour after 6 mths. Columbia will bring you up to around $13 after the same amount of time. They do not listen to employees or hire enough help to get the job done! They also are NOT safety oriented as they like to lead you to believe. A member of my team cut his leg almost to the bone and they refused to get him medical attention until the supervisor arrived on site and filled out the proper paperwork. About 1:15 later, he was finally allowed to go to the e.r. I've never been treated or seen others treated so poorly as I have with Columbia distribution! The longest I have ever worked with anyone on my team before they left for another company is 4 months. Very high turn over rate

Unless you are upper management you get the vibe that you are very easily replaceable. Upper management very rarely interfaces the non higher ups and when they do it comes across as obviously disingenuous and forced. It is a common occurrence to overhear employees discussing that they feel undervalued and nothing more than a number in a spreadsheet to upper management. Columbia is notorious for not paying their employees enough, asking for a raise is like pulling teeth. I have seen multiple exemplary employees given 5-50 cent raises when the company is doing excellent financially. It is extremely common for sales reps and other positions to work long extra hours inside accounts improving relationships at the cost of sacrificing time with their own families.
