Minpunten
Terrible upper management Toxic environment, everyone is miserable...and it's obvious. Terrible compensation, they do not pay for good people All of the talented, hardworking, and passionate employees leave....leaving a company full of lazy and undereducated individuals. If you are driven, passionate, and motivated for growth, this is not the place for you. The way you will be treated will make you bitter and eventually strip you of your passion and work ethic. There is a decent work/life balance only because eventually you just do not care anymore. That's a terrible place to be...and that is the place everyone is at. It's like Walking Dead. When one person quits, they give you their entire workload, with ZERO extra compensation. You oblige thinking this will lead to upward mobility.... it does not. The opportunity for advancement is non-existent. They would rather hire someone new, for less money. They do not pay for experience or reward stellar employees. You MIGHT get a 1% raise at the end of year, but so does the moron whose job you have been doing for years. There is no incentive to keep going above and beyond. Cultures and values--what cultures and values?? The only culture I was witness to was the "good ole boys club." Someone should tell RP that an ice cream truck twice during the summer does not boost moral. And that a $25 Walmart gift card for the holidays is a slap in the face. Three key fundamentals to running a business: People, Process, Product. Rawlings does not care about their people, nor do they hire the most talented, but the cheapest. You have no voice at Rawlings and if you try to use it, you are blacklisted. There are no leaders setting process and making sure that people adhere to them. It's mayhem. Constantly. In fact, none of the leaders that they have in place possess leadership qualities. Can you say passive aggressive? Luckily, Rawlings has good product, but sooner or later the "leaders" are going to destroy the brand, and then you have nothing.
