Carriage Services Reviews

Pros

Carriage offers an environment where you can make your own path. If you perform at a higher level they will work with you on your career path. The current culture at Carriage is second to none. Focusing on the autonomy of each individual location and how they can be the leaders in their market. Great example of a bottom up organizational chart. The Houston Support Centers only focus is being a resource for our industry leading Managing Partners.

Cons

With all companies you will find things that you may not like, but those seem to be minimal at Carriage.

Pros

Carriage Cares, focus on individual growth and putting the right person in the right spot. Positive focus on culture. Encourages the best in all people. Plenty of support and communication. Can't speak enough about how great and positive all the management is.

Cons

I honestly cant think of a negative thing.

Pros

The Company places a lot of focus on culture and growth. Positive environment. Great people. Long history and strong reputation.

Cons

If you're looking for the big company environment (and some people prefer that structure), this is not the place for you.

Pros

The people The culture The opportunity and ability to make an impact Rewarding atmosphere

Cons

It is not for someone who is ok with being just ok.

Pros

The organization cares for its associates and provides the support needed to be successful. Honesty and Integrity are the cornerstones for all we do!

Cons

Nothing really stands out at this point - the organization is always on the lookout for individuals that want to be their best and be of service to others.

Pros

Absolutely the best culture I have had with a large company. All employees make a difference and real partnership is not only created but sustained throughout the portfolio. You always wait to see what it's going to be like after the "honey-moon" period of joining but at Carriage that is just who we are, Driven by People, Inspired by Passion!

Cons

The Death Care industry is unique, and it is not for everyone.

Pros

Values & ethics that align with my own personal integrity Sincere appreciation and assistance if needed, from Regional Partners & Director of Support. Ability to run business as if were my own, but with the expertise of financial analysts, IT, Marketing, HR, and legal all at my fingertips. I get to call on them, when I need assistance.

Cons

You will be challenged You will be required to meet guidelines This is not a 9:00-5:00

Pros

Chris Manceaux was an Excellent VP

Cons

Expectations were not always clear

Pros

Great funeral company to work for, benefits are a big plus, flexible hours, with opportunity for growth in professional funeral service.

Cons

It can be hard work, & hours, it is a 24-hour 7-day week industry, but rewarding for a person who has a desire to be all they can be in funeral service and that want a stable career.

Pros

I have never had an experience where I was given TOTAL autonomy. The leadership was left to ME! I was led by normal operation methods that a small business demands and unless I had a problem, I was left to handle the business. The support staff was unusually kind and if we were to partner in our succession plan, Carriage would be the OBVIOUS choice. I left with hesitation to build real estate equity but they could NOT have been more gracious!

Cons

I truly can’t think of any.
