Pros

I am honored to work for such an incredible company. Prior to Bobcat of St. Louis, I wasn't sure a company like this truly existed. This family owned company makes you feel just like that, family! I have always been treated with respect and have felt part of the Bobcat team since I walked through the doors on my first day. You can tell that you AND your family are truly cared for. At Bobcat of St. Louis I enjoy coming to work every day and spending time with all of my coworkers. The management team is kind, approachable, and always willing and able to help with any situation. Again, I am grateful to work for such a great company and I believe I could speak for many here at Bobcat of St. Louis!

Cons

I honestly could not come up with a single con for Bobcat! They are a great company to be apart of!

Pros

Friendly to staff and courteous

Cons

Not enough help when needed

Pros

Plenty of time to work overtime and get ahead. Certain great team members and many mechanics help each other out since management won't.

Cons

Poor management, used threats and harassment to get things done. Management would obligate mechanics to push repairs on certain customers to take care of others for billing purposes. Some Mechanics would make up repairs to increase productivity and managment knew about it. Being yelled at was a normal occurrence with direct management and every one up to the owner knew about it but didn't care. The threat of being fired if you don't do as your told is heavily instilled in people. Very hostile work environment. Upon construction of new building, the construction company called the manager of bobcat the "yeller" because he was always angry and hostile at someone.

Pros

Great operations staff - coworkers who are generally interested in your life and well-being. The Valley Park location has the best Branch Manager you could work for, he is definitely under-valued by upper management, but truly cares and takes care of his people.

Cons

1. Upper management is sneaky and under-handed; they only care about themselves, take all the credit for projects you may have completed. 2. Upper management sees their employees as expendable and just another number, no interest or care in seeing them as people. The turnover rate as this company is a joke; the amount of money they waste on constantly training new employees could be better spent on furthering the positions/well-being of current employees. 3. Corporate Team does not work well together, they each have no backbone and bicker and under-handedly talk about each other behind each other's backs. 4. Company routinely under-pays their staff (when compared to other companies in the area) and continually adds to the employee workload without compensation. 5. Great employees get over-looked and unpaid - while suck up employees gets praised. 6. Long-work hours, limited vacation time.

Pros

Our owner said it best "I don't even feel like it's going to work, employees show up everyday and work gets done." That's exactly how I feel. Bobcat of St. Louis has a great work environment, consisting of amazing and loyal employees. We are family owned and operated and you can feel that when you walk in the doors at all of the branches. Bobcat of St. Louis promotes a lot from within, so that's a plus for all employees, future and current.

Cons

With having (9) branches, sometimes communication and continuity within the branches can be tough. But, it's something we continue to work on.
