Pros

Good company in a sustainable field Good leadership Diverse

Cons

Most positions do not offer a lot of opportunity for growth. Extreme effort over a long period of time needs to be shown for any sort of career progression, as there is not a great org chart for gradual progressions in most departments. Also, the company seemed to be very employee-first, but with HVAC competition getting fierce, they went under layoffs shortly after stating that they were going to do everything but that to keep the company running. I was abruptly laid off just 1 year after being promoted and providing record numbers in my areas... And apparently there were around 30+ laid off at the same time. So that could be a sign that the Columbia, SC plant is not heading in a good direction...

Pros

I had the opportunity to work with some truly great coworkers in the Service Department. There was a strong sense of camaraderie and support among the team. The company also does a nice job hosting events and internal gatherings, which helps build connection across departments. Benefits are decent overall, including a 401(k) and PTO offerings.

Cons

While the benefits package is fair, the medical coverage could be stronger. Leadership at one point felt very supportive and well-run, but after some key departures, the environment shifted. At times, it can feel more like working for a large corporation where employees may not feel as valued on an individual level. There is an emphasis on collaboration, but in practice, accountability can be inconsistent especially when it comes to addressing underperformance, even when concerns are raised.
