Vantaggi

most of the staff are great people and nice

Svantaggi

Nepotism and upper management styles make this a very difficult place to work and foster an environment of burnout and frustration. They don't place enough appreciation or respect on the support staff, who are really the ones that allow the company to operate every day. If you are not in the inner circle (i.e. the family) your opinions and ideas will never be heard or taken into serious consideration. They preach work-life balance but it really doesn't apply to the day-to-day office staff which is sad and there is a lot of turnover because of this. I recall the best times are when the owner and family are on vacation because we can be left alone to do our work without harassment or a pile-on of random requests. Moving up in the company is extremely difficult because there is not a lot of trust between upper management and everyone else.

Vantaggi

Yorke makes a point of allowing people to do what they love; over my years here, I've given feedback on the responsibilites that I enjoy, that I don't, and what projects I'd like to be involved it - and they've listened. My role has shifted more towards doing when I love. They place a high priority on company culture and work life balannce. They invest a lot in both fostering a community in the workplace and in individual professional development. I understand that community in the workplace isn't for everyone, but personally, I want to work in a place where I know and enjoy time with my coworkers. They have optional clubs, activities, happy hours, and sports to be involved in. 5 times/year they require staff to travel into the headquarters for meetings, but those are the only mandatory events. The daily hours/schedules are flexible, and they respect PTO/time outside of work hours. They pay very well.

Svantaggi

Holidays and PTO are pretty limited. Other reviews complain about nepotism...yes, it is a family owned company, started 30 years ago by the current owner, but I have never see nepotism shown in a unfair/concerning way.
