Pros

Great place for someone who wants to learn how private equity operates and gain exposure to how a PE-backed company is run. You’ll learn a lot quickly and develop strong stress-management skills in a fast-paced environment.

Cons

I joined expecting a finance environment, but much of the role became focused on managing severe liquidity constraints and extending supplier payments due to ongoing cash flow challenges. The company is highly leveraged and heavily dependent on revolver capacity to fund operations. WHOEVER LEADS CASH NEEDS TO GO!!! They are clueless when it comes managing cash.

Pros

Good pay , good benefits

Cons

Hardly any days off , very bad management, the Seward, Nebraska location is very dirty , the general manager position has had multiple people come through that location, HR is very un fair and has better opportunities for certain people that are in their pockets? They constantly are having group leaders change areas and switching out the positions to different people who have no clue what they are doing ? The group leaders punish the good people and reward their friends, this location has no desire to succeed or grow or listen to the employees who do all the dirty work
