Working at Airgas in Radnor, PA: 3 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Radnor, PA Area

"I worked for this company for 20 years. We were acquired in 2016 by a foreign company. The foreign company does not know how to give proper customer service in the US which leads to a decline in sales. The shareholders still wanted their dividends. So to make up the loss in sales the foreign company reduces the workforce by 330 people across the nation."

"Get back on those phones... Memo: Any requests to get up from your desk and go the bathroom are pre-denied due to staff-turnover. And you won't get a raise due to the economy however, you will receive a complimentary diaper with the Airgas logo on it, which will arrive at your home in time for the holidays, as a token of gratitude for being over-worked and underpaid."

"HR Management are bullies"

What do you like about working at Airgas?

"The job description, however, none of it actually described the job I was ALLOWED to do."

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

"If you are the type of person that likes to make improvements and feel like you accomplished something each day....Run, Run away as fast as you can. If on the other hand, you want to sit around and do nothing all day, by all means, apply for a job. I just hope you have a thick skin if you do get the job. Apparently, the person before me lasted less than a week. She started on Monday, then left for lunch on Friday and never returned. I lasted almost a year."

What don't you like about working at Airgas?

"My boss was a bully. She didn't want me to make any improvements. She wanted things her way and that way would change direction with the wind. It didn't matter what you did. If you did it this way, she wanted it that way. If you did it that way, she wanted it this way. If you smarted up and did it both ways, she would just hold it on her desk until it slipped between the cracks because she didn't want to make the improvements. I bet now that I am gone, she is pushing through the changes as if they were hers."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Apparently there are a ton of managers that like bullying. I suggest the clean house in HR, then look to build a culture of accountability."
