Managing Partner is Unethical
May 26, 2023 - Cemetery Administrative AssistantRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Coworkers were great, good work/life balance, workload was very reasonable
Cons
Very poor communication. Managing Partner plays favorites and treats everyone else poorly. The funeral homes and the cemetery are a revolving door of employees. Organization structure is flat. Every single person reports directly to the Managing Partner which is ridiculous. He is also extremely passive-aggressive. Benefits and pay are horrible.

Pros
Lots of smart people to work with. Great lunch options in close proximity.
Cons
The leadership is out of touch with the people actually performing the day to day tasks to help the company succeed. Recent leadership changes have changed the culture of the company negatively to where the company is now being run like a sales organization where a lot of people are overworked, under compensated, and micromanaged. Work-life balance has become non-existent since 2020. There’s a lack of employee appreciation and dismissiveness runs rampant amongst the leaders.

Pros
Employees that work in the field are excellent—so many great Funeral Directors, Managing Partners, Admins, etc.
Cons
Your experience at the Houston Support Center really boils down to how well you are liked. If you are well-liked and connected to popular people within the company, you will be fine and mentored. However, if you are on the outside, it can feel very isolating.
