Pros

The ability to work remotely.

Cons

Management is non-existent. They are all talk with their fluff comments and no action. People in those management positions don’t know what they are doing and are constantly being saved by the “disposable workers.” They say they care about their employees but will drop the top performers in a second with little care or thought. They lay off so many people and expect you to pick up the slack. (Just to save them money from their own poor planning) Overworked by 10-20 hours a week with little pay and no OT and continue to demand more from you. Always talk of being promoted and getting a raise, but it never actually happens.

Hi, this is Greg Summers, Chief Customer Officer. I won’t write paragraphs but do want to take a moment to at least acknowledge your comments, and address some of your concerns. We have had to make some hard decisions lately in response to the global economic conditions, and unfortunately, the impacted roles are not always based on performance but rather account volumes – some clients are growing, some are contracting, and others remain consistent. We’re committed to being as transparent as we can be with the state of the business, and to continuing to invest in the development of our people. We recently paid bonuses and did give merit increases based on 2022 performance, and we continue to offer learning and development opportunities through the courses we offer internally, as well as those available through platforms like Succeed and SocialTalent. I’d appreciate the opportunity to talk more about your message. Please, if you have additional comments, contact your leader or me. You can reach me any time through Teams or at Greg.Summers@cielotalent.com. Thank you.

Pros

well established clients. Interesting projects; friendly coworkers

Cons

No bonus, no merit increase pay out over the last 4 years. They say they want to strenghten their customer relationships and allocate more to AI but this is the worst way to do it. If your team went above and beyond and secured continuing business the bare minimum is a small merit increase. Growth opportunities for high performing employees will bring you more business. There is nothing to look forward to aside from a paycheck and contract renewal every 6 months.
