“The biggest little family owned subchapter S company ever, lots of drama.”
Former Employee – worked at Southwire
Pros – Southwire provides competitive benefits and good employee facilities. Outwardly tries to engage community with programs and notion the of family owned ties.
Cons – CEO has very few ties to community other than job (permanent home in NY). "Company town" attitudes. Private company lack of accountability or scrutiny. Ethical flexibility. Condescending to workforce. Lack of diversity in management.
Advice to Senior Management – Open up communications and have substance behind claims of the employees of Southwire being their "most valuable asset." Stop trying to be the smartest guys (and finally one woman) in the room. Just because you are a private company doesn't mean you are out of reach of public and ethical business practices.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
