Pros
My immediate coworkers that have nothing to do with the corporation. They are lovely and we're trying to weather this storm together.
Cons
I don't even know where to begin. Aside from being constantly berated about numbers No regular raises, drastically different wages for folks in the same job regardless of tenure (talk to your coworkers, even at other sites, about your pay folks!) Completely unorganized corporate structure, top heavy, unrealistic demands of site workers, understaffed accounting, IT, fleet, etc managing. It's like they are just trying to Hoover up a bunch of money while running long successful mom and pop businesses they purchased into the ground. Funeral Directers and Admin are vacuuming and scrubbing toilets in their business attire on breaks and lunches because they can't afford a cleaning crew. The reason we do it is bc we care about our business reputation and the families we serve. FPG does not. Too understaffed for most anyone to take a significant vacation (an extra day or two maybe) unless you're management. The last "vacation" I was able to take was almost 2 years ago for a family funeral. It starts out like nothing is going to change much. They let the owners stay on a bit and say they'll keep the culture and respect the area. As soon as they get rid of the owners, everything changes. I'm buying cups for the water cooler for families and other supplies with my own money. They've let our removal vans blow up and not replace them. Our crematorium is falling apart. This is four years in with FPG.
