Gunster. Reviews
view allReviewed on May 19, 2024
What would you, or others, like to see changed at employer?
Get more involved in HR's role, along with what managers are doing. Company is growing too fast to allow undertrained managers free reign.
What were the things that you liked most about this employer?
Co-workers very nice. Work enjoyable. Benefits are good. Departments work very well with each other. Management constantly finds outside activities to get involved with.
What did you not like about this institution?
Too many chiefs.
Three immediate bosses for two employees insisting that you follow their lead. You can easily get caught up in power plays.
Job stability is not there, and everyone is constantly stressed about job security.
