Pros

My check has not bounced yet and here in St. Louis we take it day by day. I hear it's the same at all sites.

Cons

For as long as I can remember, CMS has laid off longtime employees near or at retirement age. In all the years I've been working here, I've never had one performance review!! Except unprofessional yelling and screaming from the owner. There is no loyalty whatsoever. Some employees that are 50 and older have gone without raises for over 15+ years, while younger employees have received raises annually. After a 10% pay cut several years ago, only a "select few" received their 10% in pay back. If you were 50 or older, you did not. It does not matter how good an employee you are or what HR or your managers think. If the owner and his wife want you gone, you are gone. Employees live in a constant fear of when they will be on the chopping block. Beware, June is always layoff month! I'll probably be next for writing this.

CMS Communications Response

Thanks for your feedback! CMS has multiple division heads that try to accommodate all employee needs. Some divisions have employees who are near or past retirement age that still enjoy the work environment. The 10% cut was all around the board cut that management and employee alike experienced due to the 2007-2009 recession. CMS felt this was the best option during those tough times and certain programs like 401K matching (that were also cut) have now been brought back. HR is always available to listen to your comments and suggestions and we implore you to take advantage of their confidentiality. We take your input seriously, even if that means censuring or repremandation at the highest levels. Complete consideration will be taken of this review. Thanks again for your input!

Pros

The company is somewhat flexible and the benefits are good.

Cons

The CEO / President AKA Glenn Cosman is a no show CEO who will lie to your face, insult your competence or belittle you in front of your customer or other employees. Be careful when you sign the employment agreement that states your compensation can change because they mean it. It is hard to see someone who is the president of this business care so little about their customers. It is even harder to see the same happen with employees.
