Slakey Brothers Employee Reviews for Regional Credit Manager

"Had potential, ruined by one poor executive"

What do you like about working at Slakey Brothers?

"I enjoyed working with one of the senior VP's, who really took an interest in my development and building my department. This looked like an excellent spot to move forward in my career, until the reorganization."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Top-notch sales staff that really knows their stuff, backed up by good product knowledge and excellent support personnel. This company takes pretty good care of their customers and remaining employees, but stay out of Finance and IT. Those two departments are poorly managed, with IT in particular overwhelmed and ineffective."

What don't you like about working at Slakey Brothers?

"After the reorganization, the senior finance person I now reported to took little interest in my professional judgment or development, and took over my position two months later. This individual proceeded to tear down the department, and wound up losing the income from a number of credit customers through inattention and failure to manage the relationship."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Most were fine, but the senior finance person was threatened by competence in their direct reports, poorly organized, and unable to manage projects to completion."
