The 401 Group of Companies
The 401 Group of Companies Employee Review
Unfortunately not a place I would recommend unless you are hurting for the work - too many negative things cloud over any positives.
Sales (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 27 September 2023
What is the best part of working at the company?I was given some nice projects to work on which was a motivation to get up and come to work everyday. Outside of that, there was many things that didn't sit well with me.What is the most stressful part about working at the company?I felt we were overworked and there was often lots of stress in the overall work environment. There was a lot of turnover which can be very unsettling not knowing if your co-worker will be there when you arrive Monday morning.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?They like to think they have a great work environment and culture but it's far from it. It might be that way for those in management but for anyone else, it's not the case. It becomes clear that everyone is scared of the owners and management - it so surreal, in my opinion. Everyone walks on eggshells, scared that they may mess up. There are days when you don't feel like coming to work.What is a typical day like for you at the company?Come in, do you work to the best of your abilities but don't expect too much praise or encouragement for a job well done - especially from those on top. I did get to meet some nice people which was a plus.

Not a good place to work
BDC (Former Employee) - Cambridge, ON - 28 November 2023
Honestly, there’s no training given, you work in a toxic environment and a distracting one , expect you to do a job that no one teaches you what to do, and tell you to just move on when someone gets angry for the company not listening to them. But they still don’t change anything. Company has some good aspects but the cons out weigh the pros, sorry about the honesty
Pros
Cool people
Cons
Horrible work environment, no training was given other than videos on how to do something that you don’t do.
