Kendall and Hazo's were great places to work. Were they better than REX? Personally I don't think so!

What has changed is the world has moved on. There are now opportunities out there in numbers that simply didn't exist just a few years ago. The size of the operation has grown and as such has lost much of it's "family" atmosphere. That's the price of success. A mate of mine who went to DJ years ago said after 12 months, he would come back if he could earn the same money and if they would have him! Again the price of success. And REX has been quite sucessful.

Where REX falls down big time however is their lack of success in motivating people to look at the company as a viable alternative to other higher paying operators. Does REX care about that? Definitely not, and has stated publicly as much.

So given the almost complete lack of effort by REX management in this regard, people throw their hands up and actively look elsewhere. The frustration of seeing nothing encourageing from the top, and the need to uproot what you may be comfortable with just to provide a future for your family, will inevitably lead to the sort of reactions we have seen on these forums. The big problem for REX, is that for these people, there are plenty of places to look!
