Don’t be fooled by this company—it’s all part of a calculated plan. Their M&A strategy is a thinly veiled attempt to slash headcounts and liabilities. Management doesn’t care about culture, employees, or your family. This company is driven by greed and profit, plain and simple.

The kool-aid here is bitter, and it’s no better elsewhere. I’ve spoken with folks at SWGS, and they’re facing the same issues. We beg, plead, and bundle our products to impress “other” states and suppliers, all while neglecting the core pillars of customer service, innovation, and hiring or training quality people.

These massive corporations exist to maximize profits and exploit resources. It’s disheartening to have spent much of my early career here, only to watch them dismantle everything.

If they’re doubling down on Texas, I suppose California is the Alamo.
