Good company - Anonymous employee Hercules (NY) Employee Review

Great team values and teamwork

May be asked to do multiple tasks that aren’t necessarily under your title.

After having this job I can honestly say I know what it feels like to work in an unhealthy environment but still I prevailed until the universe aligned.

ZERO STARS. I was employed at Hercules Corp. for a little while. I was let go after I slaved away after being completely used and working on hundreds of files a week & doing favors for the supervisor and other coworkers. I was discriminated by the supervisor and another long time coworker due to my age. They protect each other and the respect for a new employee was not there. I was not allowed to step out of the office at all unless it was my break but other employees could freely do so. Barry would gossip terrible personal things about other employees he was hiring openly in the middle of the office. They are only trying to have each other's backs and don't see that this is what will cause the company to eventually reach it's demise. But do they care? Not at all. They are making fat paychecks and literally belittle their employees. Barry Heller also thinks very highly of himself and the people that work closer with the owner. He even tried to tell me that I am better than other employees but was quick to try to throw me under the bus. I've reached out to HR all the way in California about these issues and have gotten no response. So Barry Heller. Please do not try to reach out to me because this review is going everywhere. All your employees know that Hercules would pay any amount of money to remove a review so have fun. Plus the amount of complaints I have heard from customers about the quality of your machines do not surprise me. Not to mention your own employees also agree and feel that there is an unhealthy work environment under your management. Hope you feel well lived. As if their reviews can get any worse!! This place is a joke. Take it with you when you go. I earned my pay and left. Once I walked out that door I felt a peacefulness I never thought I'd feel again. Do not ever work for this company.
