Pros

They produce a quality product. Employees are loyal to the company. The benefits.

Cons

Don't take care of their employees that are hurt on the job, as far as Worker's Comp is concerned. Supervisors use the employees as scape goats when issues arise and someone needs to be held responsible. MSHA has given them negative ratings with almost every inspection.

Pros

Good pay per hour people and managers are nice treat everyone well

Cons

The managers in charge of spending do not want to spend money on fixing old trucks, do not want to spend money on new trucks needed now. Because of this there are not enough trucks to provide excellent customer service and if you dont have a truck or your truck breaks down, because of this they expect you to drive to other plants and float on trucks not being used that day by their regular driver and on your dime.

Sex discrimination, age discrimination, I stay only because of geography

Pros

If you are a Mexican or Spanish speaking male, fine. Good for entry level roles and training. Great opportunity to reach out to those global networks and learn how things operate in othe countries. Karls seems to be the opposite of all the cons I list, so I am holding on with the hope it can change. The company has some real social ethos at a global level they don't get enough credit for.

Cons

If you are a female, certain upper management - who control all decisions - can't even comprehend that you could be an engineer or field construction professional. Drive a loader? Ha. They still think there is a 3rd joystick there. That attitude results in judgements made based on perceptions, and minutia, not the numbers and performance. Men are promoted in operations and legal, women are second class and treated poorly. Paranoia, secret networks, suppressed information, way worse than any other big company I have ever seen.
