Forest Lawn Memorial-Park Association Reviews

Pros

Great Benefits, 401K, Christmas Party every year, health insurance, monthly employee meetings breakfast included :), education benefits.

Cons

Poor development program , if you want to get promoted , it’s all up to you to work your way up. When you are promoted, you’re still all by your own . There is no program to develop their leaders and create a reach leadership environment. I would say there is not much to learn from the other “managers” - not leaders, no leadership- I believe they mostly are self developed and learned to figure out their way and survive. I know people with the least ability have been around for over 30 years with the company and it’s only because they know how to put a show out there.

Pros

Best benefits in the industry

Cons

Lots of favoritism, sexual harassment, management very old fashioned, no dissenting opinions allowed

Pros

Great pay, uniforms, dry cleaning, amazing benefits, some great people.

Cons

HR protects management and doesn’t fix any issues. Management only looks out for themselves, doesn’t actually care about you or your well being. Uniforms are cheap and ugly, you look like you work for a bank. Most of the management has no idea what they are doing. Promoting within for people who aren’t ready, and lack skills to manage. You’ll get yelled at a lot. The pay isn’t worth the lack of respect.

Pros

Great benefits. Pension Plan. Met some great mentors and colleagues that took me under their wing. They invest in their management team. Leadership training was very informative and helpful for my growth.

Cons

7 years of loyalty. Put my blood sweat and tears and went from being an exemplary employee to “a problem employee” all because of change of management, poor leadership, politics and obvious favoritism . She took a great team and demoralized them. Condescending, bullying, rude, toxic, manipulative and unprofessional. She came to clean house to have Cypress Park be run by her minions. Very disheartening, the morale of the entire park went down. HR did nothing about the complaints that almost everyone at the location had filed a complaint against her. It all starts at the top, the unprofessional behavior of the CEO who showed zero compassion when I went to him for coaching and to report the issues happening at his park. They all have covered up years of sexual harassment by their Senior VP. I would not recommend working here unless you’re willing to play politics and be part of the good ole boys club. You will never go anywhere if you are a kind, compassionate and a dedicated individual.

Pros

Meet great people to work with

Cons

No room for promotion unless you’re a brown nosed person then this job is for you! Management will love you... Moreover, Horrible work schedule, but if you have no life then apply. They overworked you and the pay is not great. You’re constantly worrying about not messing up because if you do you’ll get fired.
