- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★Featured Review
Pros
Work life balance, People, Leadership, Training
Cons
It is a large corporation, and this sometimes causes things to take much longer than they should to get done.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Interesting company involved in work in a variety of industries.
Cons
Salary, time off, and benefits
- Current Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Affordable and competitive health benefits Decent PTO Option for remote work depending on the position Long tenure of employees in most departments COVID safe policies for remote work/vaccines/masks throughout 2020-2022 Progressive CEO Polite and respectful atmosphere Good work-life balance
Cons
Longer-term employees face lower salaries with few options for promotions and growth Increasing turnover now that employees can get better-paying remote jobs outside of the Joplin area Very slow to react to employee feedback in regard to salary reviews, employee engagement, and inclusion efforts Diversity and inclusion efforts are far behind other companies of its size - there is a manager and a "committee" but after six months, no movement or visible changes Very few women or people of color in leadership roles, including at the executive/board level Almost no professional development training either by departments or corporate No training budgets for external certifications/training Salary increases not commiserate with inflation Low bonuses/merit raises despite high company performance No work-from-home stipend Little bit of a micromanagment culture in the IT department

Pros
They offer decent enough benefits in comparison to other companies.
Cons
They treat people as standardly as possible and don't seem to keep in mind the employees well-being. Most of what they advertise is for looks only, and not taken into practice. They will do whatever they need to keep their Management's pockets full. I have never been so misled by a company. To see so many branches shut down and lay offs but no change in upper management bonuses.
Continue reading - Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
It's easy. They provide lunch sometimes.Yay..
Cons
They change the schedule daily. They do not care if you are burned out or have plans this weekend. The day before Saturday comes they will come and say oh by the way you're working tomorrow. Have plans? Alright just don't come in and get an attendance point. They laid a ton of people off just to get rid of the people they don't like. Management does NOT care about their employees.
- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Normally with large corporations, you miss the inclusion aspect that most smaller companies naturally have, but Leggett & Platt is different. There are 140+ branches, yet each branch feels like they play a key role in the overall success of the company and branches are able to contribute ideas to the functions of the company. All upper management are welcoming and approachable, which is refreshing for a company this size. In addition to this, there is an open dialog about career opportunities within the company and that creates loyalty.
Cons
There are always trade offs to working for a great company and unfortunately, Leggett is not an exception to this. Compensation is something that there is room for improvement. In the past year, there have been some positive changes that have resulted in wage increases for certain roles to bring them closer to what other comparable positions pay in the area.
- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
It's a good place to work.
Cons
Pay scale not up to current standards.
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★

No pros, worst company ever

Plant management will treat you like a dog

Pros

Cons
some questionable choices in management staff "Hurry up and wait" mentality for as many great people that work there there's an equal amount of weenies
