Pros
The CEO genuinely cares about his company and his people, as is evident by his showing up every day and getting to know team members. Schedules are flexible allowing for great work-life balance. The office culture is fun and laid back. New executives have been brought on board who are instilling a fresh, new outlook to internal relationships and operations. I only see great things ahead for this fast growing company.
Other perks: Generous benefits, 401K match, health and fitness incentives, Honda Center suite and Angels Stadium season tickets, onsite massages, social events, personable executives.Cons
This company is growing a ton and becoming a top competitor in the industry, so naturally there are going to be growing pains and restructuring. Teams and leaders who do not align with the direction of its future and are left behind.
Advice to Management
I wish there were more leadership workshops for management. I think the workforce would really benefit from more inspiring management that exposes and fosters potential in every team member.

Pros
Flexible schedule, many different departments with opportunities. Casual dress code and great coworkers. Free meals on occasion. Lots of overtime available. Departments work together to get job done.
Cons
Work can be repetitive and peak season overtime can lead to burnout. Management has their pets who get preference over others. Pay is on the low side.
Advice to Management
Overall it's great. Provide positive feedback so we can keep going during busy time when we are burning out. Sit with us when we are in this season to see we are doing our best and help find realistic solutions to make it better for all. An increase in pay to be more competitive would be nice too. It would also help retain those who really go above and beyond on a consistent basis.

Looks like the company is growing. Lots of OT opportunities, Bonuses are available and paid early (nice surprise at Christmas). The operations leadership is engaged and friendly. The owner still walks around. Nice things are done like breakfasts, lunches, fitbit challenges. Lots of cross training happening, people are moving around and up, that's promising. I have worked in far worse companies.

Cons
It's a production job and at times the stress level is high and the task is repetitive but that's the role so what can you do. Overall they try to make it as enjoyable as possible
Advice to Management
Looks like you are doing the right things. Keep talking to production employees and maybe train supervisors more on management style.

RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Accurate Background full-time
Pros
Great benefits - medical, dental, vision, 401K matching, HSA incentives and wellness program, employee appreciation breakfasts, paid vacation and holidays. Even had free on-site chair massage one day! Work-life balance is encouraged. People/company culture is great - they genuinely care about each, giving back to the community is prevalent, and there are company sports teams. Opportunities for growth and career advancement - many employees who started off in temp or hourly positions have moved into salary and career positions. CEO and management are approachable and friendly.
Cons
Pay is somewhat below market for some positions. Also there are instances where employees with years of work experience or who have moved up within the company are paid relatively the same as new hires just out of school with little work experience.

Pros
Great people to work to with. Great social activities.
Cons
A lot of politics with management.
Frequent managerial regime changes leading to frequent layoffs.
Often overworked and doing multiple job positions due to the layoffs.
Very frugal. They don't invest in the necessary resources to meet expectations.
Favoritism is key because they get the necessary resources, better assignments, and the credit. Otherwise you'll get the unfavorable assignments, limited resources, stalled career path, and credit taken from you.Advice to Management
Put politics aside and value your employees. Don't play favorites. "Penny wise pound foolish". Don't expect the world if you don't want to invest the resources to make it happen. Otherwise there won't be any employees left to manage.

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookDisapproves of CEOI worked at Accurate Background full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
The only serious pro I can think of is the individuals I worked with. Oh and they purchased breakfast for the company every so often
Cons
Where do I start. My first month or so this place seemed very promising but then my boss went on maternity leave and everything was down hill from there. If your not a favor then you don't stand a chance. Not to mention as soon as my "stand in boss" found out I was pregnant they fired me 2 days later saying they were "cutting back" then I hear they hired about a dozen new employees. Definitely wouldn't consider working at this place especially after something like that.
Advice to Management
You should try treating all employees as equals
