Pros

HR was a highlight, a pleasure to work with and was always friendly and helpful. The President was very hands on until she hired a new VP and then became very distant with staff.

Cons

Navstar was a place I was proud to call my company, until the middle of 2010 when there was some serious changes at the HQ level bringing in senior management who were very against everything the company had built a positive reputation represented. Business practices reverted and the legacy staff quit one by one as a senior leader became a senior pain and displeasure to come into the office and work with on a daily basis. It is 2010 and printing should be something done on a serious as needed basis. GreenIT is a compentency of Navstar yet, one influencial employee prints probably a ream a day.

This really hurts to see. We go out of our way to take care of our employees and routinely make decisions that benefit employees at great expense to the company. One example is for 3 years running we have absorbed the vast majority of heath care cost increases instead of passing them on to our employees. Another example is in 2013 when the government shutdown occurred we immediately extended 40 hours, then 80 hours of negative PTO to our employees, rather than making them take leave without pay as many companies did. Our small business was founded and is run by people who have been line employees all their lives and we make every decision with great care and concern for the impact on employees. I don't know what issue this review was based on, but I do wish we had a chance to address this while this person was still with the business, we can only solve issues we know about.

Pros

Former employees were a great group of people.

Cons

Morale is low. Very impersonal company with little visibility. Constant turnover. Lack of direction/Constant change in direction. Over-promising and under-delivering to both customers and employees. Bad management sets up a chain reaction of staff turnover and customer dissatisfaction. When employees get mistreated, they quit. As new people begin their learning curve, customer service deteriorates. When turnover reaches maximum overload, new employees are usually just thrown into their jobs with little or no training and customers start to leave and never come back.
