Terrible work environment

Pros

None that I can think of

Cons

Unprofessional management at all levels. Extremely high employee turnover. The management would often scream at you, treat us all like we were incompetent. With approximately only 15 full time employees at one time, it's amazing that they have gone through about 25 employees in two years. I am a dedicated worker, no one deserves to be treated like this at a job, or anywhere else. They never take responsibility for anything.....and treat people horribly. Don't fall for the promises at the interview...they will turn on you on a dime. I hope this saves some good people the terrible experience and waste of time.

Pros

Trust me there are none.

Cons

Failing leadership and lack of communication make this a very poor company. A ton of turnover (that they don’t tell you about upon hire). Very secretive towards employees and customers. Management does not respect hard work. It is a “my way or the highway” mindset. Customer DEFINITELY does not come first, their agenda does. When customers get frustrated instead of having a conversation with them...they will just stop talking to them, which is so wrong in an industry like this. Micromanagement at it’s finest. Leadership does not know up from down..will say one thing and change it in 4 hours and then “you” are the wrong one. Yikes! Belittling.Condescending. Just read their job postings...they are rude..that’s what you get here. This will give you a great idea of what you are in for. No benefits at this company....must provide your own. Good luck getting vacation or holidays off. “It all evens out” is what I was told-laughable. Family run so if you have an issue...you have no where to go. “Kiss the ring” mentality.

Pros

Parry Custom Homes provides the highest quality build for its customers while also working tirelessly to provide the best overall experience for the customer. To do this, it requires a team of people with a strong work ethic, a willingness to do the right thing and a positive outlook. Unfortunately over the years, I’ve seen a lot of people not possess these skills and instead of trying to learn and grow, they blame things on other people. It is not an “easy job,” as most adult jobs aren’t, but it’s extremely rewarding when you know you work for a team that is consistently trying to put forth the best overall experience and product in home building. I’ve personally witnessed managers in the trenches with their employees trying to problem solve, work through issues on-site or jump into meetings to help both the employee and customer. The owners always put the team and customers first, which is one of the biggest reasons I’ve stayed over the years. There have been many team events over the years - from picnics and parties to Top Golf and Pirates games. They pay well and also always work with people who need to get to a doctor’s appointment or a child’s game/event at school etc. They sent my family food and came to the visitation when my grandmother passed away after I had only one month working there. It takes an A+ team to deliver A+ results, and I’ve seen people come and go over the years who did not have this same attitude. I feel that they really stand behind their values of a strong work ethic, having a positive mindset and always working toward the betterment of the team and the customer. If someone did not have the same experience, then we know why…

Cons

Management has made a lot of improvement in communication over the years with team members to be more empathetic and effective. I personally like being talked to in a direct manner where I can identify the issue, correct it and move on. Some prior employees view this negatively and instead of trying to take accountability for their mistakes, stir up drama or blame other people for their shortcomings. I personally appreciate Parry only keeping strong teammates on board because I know I am working with people who care and work as hard as I do instead of people who don’t pull their own weight and become toxic colleagues. It is a small business so it took some getting used to the lack of a “corporate structure.”
