ProsThe only good things about Colomer was that they were so understaffed, the employees are able to get experience in many areas. The benefits were good as well - 401K match and good health insurance.

ConsNO opportunities for advancement unless you are Spainish. Terrible managment. Glass ceiling and unequal pay for women. Horrible culture. Lack of communication to employees. Old run down facility. Terrible working enviroment.

Advice to Senior Managementthey would not take any advice.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Denver, CO

Current Employee – been working at Colomer USA full-time for more than 7 years

ProsThis company has great employees and great products. Downtown location in a new nice office. Very interesting industry. Allows for very hands on collaboration.

ConsThere is and has been a complete lack of leadership at this company. The CEO is a tyrant and does not allow for anyone to question his authority or ideas and therefore no one actually has any good ideas. And to top it all off, they pay people next to nothing.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
