Baker & Taylor Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Working for B&T was interesting to say the least. Good hours with plenty of OT. Management needs major improvement. Supervisors either ignore the child-like stuff that goes on or are part of it. Building has asbestos, which is falling and you breathe it. (OSHA records prove this) The company sets rules and if you mention one to a supervisor/HR it is acknowledged but nothing is done. Work loads are not evenly distributed between workers. Clique workers (those who have an "in" with the supervisor/management/HR) are always acting like they are the supervisor and not doing their work… nothing said. Emergency time off is NOT allowed (i,e... snow/ice days, family emergency) even if you have PTO. All time off in one lump. No sick/vacation time separation. Think twice before going with this company. Research employee reviews first."

"Good or bad depends on what you are looking for.So you still will learn something working here."

"BTMS - a company that could have been a winner!"
