EnergyCAP Reviews

As CEO, thanks to Glassdoor for providing a method for the employer to reply to comments posted by a former employee. We appreciate and value feedback and open dialogue. I’ll respond to four points. (1) Declining Benefits? That’s a hard one to understand, just ask any current employee. 100% paid family medical and dental insurance, 32 days of paid time off even for new employees, IRA match, three free days for the entire family at an indoor water park hotel in January, and super flexible work hours, not to mention a list of others benefits, large and small. I’d rate our benefits in the top 1% of all employers within 100 miles. (2) Career Advancement? If you want positional advancement, don’t join a small company. How many department heads and supervisors can there be? Join a Fortune 100 company, be ready to relocate every 18 months and climb the corporate ladder. Your career, your life, your choice. We all need to decide what’s most important to us and our families. (3) Low Salaries. That’s a complaint I have not heard from current employees, probably because employees understand that their total compensation (salary plus benefits plus annual bonus plus work environment) is a fair exchange for value rendered. The proof: if employees were dissatisfied, they would quit and go elsewhere. In the last 3 years only one person has left because he found a better paying job elsewhere, and that required a 300-mile move. (4) Employees as Disposable Assets? In our entire history this company has employed 60 people. We’ve let 3 go in 13 years, all for the same reason: after a minimum of 2 and sometimes as many as 5 position and/or department changes, we were unable to find a position where the employee could bring real value to the team. Being a Results Only Work Environment, our philosophy is that when an employee cannot produce results despite best efforts on both our AND their part, it means that this person is better suited going through career counseling (which we have arranged) and finding a career, company and position that are a better match for their talents and passions. That’s what a caring family does. It can elicit a sense of rejection to start, but in the long run it almost always is best for the person and his/her family.
