Pros

Benefits and pay. Glad to see there are so many highly tenured employees here, as I'm relatively new given the time my coworkers have been here.

Cons

Rehiring the exec admin to the CEO has been a nightmare. I only know she was rehired as she said she was with us before. She is demeaning, negative, and bordering on hostile to employees who have been with us regardless if they have been there 1 day or 10 years. I feel like I can't speak up without getting her to turn her wrath on me. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS.

Pros

The company values their employees and the contributions they make.

Cons

The headwinds in the Ag Sector are putting pressures on the whole retail segment. Wilbur-Ellis is having to make difficult decision to evolve therefore, employees are feeling the pressures.

Pros

The flexibility was somewhat good.

Cons

If you aren’t family or part of their circle, you won’t move up. There’s a significant number of employees who have left because they don’t get a promotion, instead they give it to people who are either friends or family of management. The management will be the downfall of this “once” great company. -They took away vehicles (not how HR mandated) managers picked and chose who they wanted to take them away from. -Yearly reviews are a joke, the way they compensate does not reflect how hard you work or how much you do. They will still give a higher % to favorites.
