Beyond, Inc. reviews

Low compensation Changing priorities Not enough staff

I'm more or less writting this review in response to the one left by "a company leader" on June 14th. The condenscending and belligerent response is something you will come to expect when dealing with senior management there. The CEO seems to be the genuine article and does seem to want to build a great company with real values. He's a big believer in the transparency offered on glassdoor and has urged employees on a number of occassions to get on here and leave their feedback about the company. So a lot of these reviews are essentially the complaints you hear around the office that never get dealt with and former employees are hoping that Patrick will see their comments and make changes to save what could be an amazing company. Think about what this leader is saying in regard to "sidelining" managers and departments. They've basically come out and admitted that the reviews stating that the executive team is hostile and difficult to work with are true. I don't have an MBA but setting up a separate DEPARTMENT to undermine the work of another seems to be hostile and just plain dumb. What makes this statement even more bizarre is that it is a well known fact that people there get fired all the time for reasons that have nothing to do with their performance so it should be a given that they would be terminated if they weren't cutting mustard. Think about it this way...there is a senior executive there who has left a public message here riddled with spelling and grammatical errors claiming that any ex employee's who leave negative feedback need to go to a support group. WTF??? In the very next sentence they bemoan the fact that they aren't firing enough people and anyone who has a "bad attitude" should just leave because slavery has been abolished. Are you starting to get the picture?
