Beyond, Inc. reviews

The place is a hot mess. I don't even know where to start. They haven't figured out that your management team should be the best of the best, not who can talk the loudest. Most of the management team can talk a great game but when it comes to actually doing anything they look around like they are lost. Management does not understand that part of managing a team is managing people not just processes. You can't expect to have a functioning team if first, you don't know what you are even doing and second, you want to sit behind a computer all day not knowing what you're team is actually doing. Then to top it off you get upset when things aren't going to the plan that you have created while you have been hiding behind your computer. You can't lead a team if you do not know your team. It blows my mind how a management can sit there and blame everyone else for their failures and point fingers at everyone but them. Yes everyone is accountable for their own actions but as a manager if your team fails you fail. That's what you take on when you say yes to a management position. When I am speaking of "management team" I am talking from manager to director to freaking vice president. When there is an issue there is a proper chain of command to go through to get it resolved. Well at least there should be. It's sad when you walk into you VP office to talk about everything cause no one is listening and even the VP gives you BS excuses. At that point you give up. You go back to your desk and wait for the storm. This used to be a great company to work for. When I first started I was so happy with my job. I didn't mind that it was stressful and busy because the people and management made it worth to. I have been there many years and I have slowly watched it self destruct. Breaks my heart to watch something you love get destroyed and people are to egotistical to listen. I hope Patrick takes some time to really reflect on the company he has created and why he created it. Because from where I sit, it's going downhill fast. From day one he has always talked about the people and how this company cares about the people. That statement isn't true anymore.
