Brockway-Smith Reviews

Pros

I am very satisfied with the work environment

Cons

Not the very best benefits

Advice to Senior Management

I have no suggestions. I am sure that the management knows better what there is to be done. things are on the right path

Pros

great millwork distribution system
great customer base
President of Company is very very competent and sometimes innovative!

Cons

President of Company has empowered people in leadership roles to direct the company into the future and my belief is that they will be successful,however,this hundred + year old company owes its success to longtime loyal employees of which there "were"many!In years past Brockway ownership(family owned)has been very loyal to longstanding employees,that is not the case anymore.With the new young leadership of Brockway comes a different value system and loyal employees are quickly becoming disregarded.This is a contradiction of what they ask from their customers,THEIR LOYALTY!

Advice to Senior Management

Do not forget the values of the past presidents of Brockway Smith Co.

Pros

The family atmosphere and repore between employees is casual and friendly. The staff tend to be genuinly good people. The Hatfield location encompases a comfortable work environment.

Cons

I found a consistent lack of opportunity for advancement. The annual bonus was very small in respect to other companies in this industry. From my experience the starting salary is on the low end of the average for sales, purchasing, and supervisory positions.

Advice to Senior Management

Maintain accountability, transparancy, and develope more clear efficient lines of communication with all levels of internal and external customers.
