No Bonuses - Merchandiser Lansing Trade Group Employee Review

You eat what you kill, spectacular bonus potential. Leading the way in how traders will be comped in the future.

Management has an old boys culture. The company grew spectacularly fast, but because of that, management have very homogeneous expertise, and anything outside of truck and train trading is alien to them.

-Allow you to venture into new territory ...with of course expectation of making money -Casual work attire -Free lunch at the end of each month -Usually leave around 3:30pm on Fridays for happy hour -Young trading crowd who are relatable

-Pie in the sky idea of huge bonuses - typically the upper managements main pitch -LACK of leadership from every stage of the company -"Loc Managers" are merely traders who found a niche and were successful. Half of them are not management material -Upper management (VP's) give little direction and are extremely cold people. Only time they talk to you is if there is a problem -The mentality of Lansing is to induce fear into their employees...produce or be let go -Company has lost a lot of good traders in the past 2 years and I think they will continue that trend -They don't value their employees - rather the bottom line. -There is no training by Loc Managers...again...because they aren't managers
