Pros

The 3 day weekend is so helpful for mental health and work/life balance. The owners want to get to know you and treat you like a person. They are accommodating when possible. No job is always fun, but I have enjoyed this job and the schedule more than any other.

Cons

It is a small, family owned business, so they can't always pay the best. They can be slow to make technological improvements or procedure changes. They do take employee suggestions, though. They do group employee development training on general topics. Maybe more individual/specific would be good?

Thank you for the kind words! We certainly appreciate your tenure here at Strapworks and what you do for the company. 401k is something we are looking at matching in the coming year, we want to increase our Total Compensation Package every year and this is something that is lacking, so we are putting effort into solving it.

Pros

There are possibilities for upward movement if you are willing to put in the time and the effort. Loyalty goes a long way with Strapworks. Most people's loyalty there stems from the "family" environment created there. It is easy to feel included in the Strapworks family. Although currently, the wages are not sky high, there are programs in place for standardized advancement as well as benefits package that is growing by the year including a profit-share percentage.

Cons

As stated before, the wages start low and move up incrementally as you gain experience and test into new positions as well as with tenure. Benefits could be better, but it's a good start considering what our government has put in place regarding healthcare.

Thank you for the feedback! We will continue to update our offerings and work with employees to find what is valued most. As we get larger it does get harder to please everyone, but we work hard to at least make sure that we show value to the majority. We continue to be more transparent on opportunities and advancement available. We are also working on improving wages and working levels so that every employee has a road map to a long term future with Strapworks. Douglas Foster - President at Strapworks
