    What’s it like working at Parchem Construction Supplies?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees at Parchem Construction Supplies appreciate the opportunities for growth and upskilling, as well as the family-like company culture and great colleagues. The company's diverse product range is also seen as a strength, along with yearly salary reviews.

    However, there are some potential challenges, such as perceived micromanagement from head office and a feeling that upper management may be disconnected from the core customer base. Employees also note too many policies and procedures, which can make it difficult for customers to do business. Stock availability issues and a lack of formal training opportunities are other areas of concern. Additionally, frequent organizational changes have led to inconsistency in directions.

    Will stay with them until something better comes up, not a company to stay with if you want to keep your mental health in good shape.
    The good thingsGood team in WA. Good product range
    The challengesTo much policy and procedures (red tape) and hurdles to clear just to be able to be able to make a sale. Not an easy company for a customer to do business with. Causes lot of frustration for the staff. Lots of micro managing from head office management.
