Pros

Great coworkers that make the days bearable. Easy track to advance, and lots of opportunities to advance, if you work hard. Some managers are terrific and treat you as an adult. The pay is off the charts higher than average across all positions, benefits are so-so as to your out-of-pocket cost. Vacation is comparable with other companies.

Cons

Ever heard “too many chiefs, not enough Indians”? It’s to the extreme here. Most are “do not come to me unless you’re on my level”. Communication is ZERO due to the higher level managers being in workplace “spats” continually, and jealous of one another. If you can stay out of the crossfire it’s fine, but you are likely to end up as the fall guy for your manager if they are incompetent. Everything rolls downhill and the same poor leadership prevents any attempts at improvement, due to their own disagreements and petty differences. HR is nonexistent, as in they cannot keep anyone good due to the crazy management antics. Lots of talk of improvements, no results. All talk and no action. Beware false promises! And expect to have a manager change every 6 months or so as people give up and leave.

Pros

TK Elevator has a recognizable brand and offers exposure to a large, complex organization. There are opportunities to work with talented individuals and gain experience supporting a broad range of operations. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and the company has the resources to drive meaningful initiatives.

Cons

My experience was that the work environment was highly dependent on individual leadership styles. Communication and expectations were not always consistent, and there was limited emphasis on coaching, employee development, and constructive feedback. As a result, the environment could at times feel reactive rather than collaborative. Work-life balance and employee well-being appeared to vary considerably across teams. Employees who value transparency, empowerment, and a supportive leadership culture should take time during the interview process to understand the management philosophy of their prospective team, as experiences may differ significantly depending on reporting structure.
