Pros

Capital is one of those places big enough to provide the perks of a large company and still small enough to feel like you can personally make a difference and be heard. Yard jobs do require a certain intensity, but, hard work is recognized and rewarded by management. And working on weekends is rare, and voluntary.

Cons

As a construction related industry, the hours can get pretty long in the summer. The pace of the day can get discouraging at times. Though, in fairness, this is not unique to Capital. Anyone who has worked at a place that has a "season" will be aware of that.

Pros

NEW CHANGES TO MANAGEMENT!! OWNER AND CEO have taken notice. There is a new feeling in this branch. If anyone had left this job because you didn't feel you were going anywhere at work, that is no longer how it feels here. We are growing everyday and have a new energy around the warehouse as well as inside on the sales floor. We would love to have anyone that is positive and hard working to come check us out. There's always room for good employees. I promise you won't be disappointed!!

Cons

I can't list any. The work is steady, management treats you with respect and values employee opinions now, There is a genuine care about workers and the things they deal with outside of work too. It feels like everyone is working together towards the same goals, rather than just treading water to make the days pass. I promise, it is a night to day change in the way this place felt 2 months ago. Lots of optimistic outlooks over here.
