"I went through a lot of career advancements with Hayward Lumber and the majority of my time was a pleasant experience, however, I was the only employee in the company that saw much career advancement and the promote from within philosophy seems to have vanished."

What don't you like about working at Hayward?

"Most recent COO brought over all of his former employees, gave them big raises, cut benefits to long time employees and has lost the company millions. The big knock from me is being told we needed to take a furlough week because there wasn't enough money to pay wages and then looking to spend a few million to open a new yard in an unprofitable area after the furloughs were done."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Focus on getting back to being profitable in current markets before expanding into highly competitive and over saturated markets based on the advice of someone that has yet to bring in any profits"
