Terrible company to work for, recycled management team from Otis and TK has taken over

Field service

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Not many and this company cannot be trusted anymore. Schindler is quickly on a down trend

Cons

The SOUTH FLORIDA management team is a DISASTER. Talented people will continue to be lost until changes are made and employees are treated with respect, they run a micro-management style. The field can't stand it anymore

Business Outlook

Pros

Good Pay, healthy amount of OT, PTO, friendly Co workers, customer service week is a blast but too bad it's only one week long.

Cons

Pay could be higher, the job gets repetitive, hard to advance to a different department. So far it seems like management is all hired from an outside source. They don't hire managers or supervisors within.

Pros

What keeps you here is the employees. There is a lot of sacrifice you have to do to maintain at this job. Customer Service Week is the best and they try hard to get everyone together and amped. It is easy to make decent amount of money here by working overtime.

Cons

Management, Management, Management Can make or break a team. And by far its broken and trying to hold on like a thread but you do see small moments when they try. Favoritism is also a Con. A person can be hired in before you or asked to advance and you can be here longer and still trying to get ahead until finally they let you go or hire you in after 12 months. VERY MICRO-MANAGED!!!!
