Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, small company feel in a global organization

Cons

- Most early career employees leave before hitting three years due to the lack of development, coaching and growth opportunities. - Director and VP heavy organization so no roles in between early career and senior roles. -Very toxic culture where everyone is “out to get you” and trying to use you to climb the ladder. - If you are not a salesman, you will not succeed in this organization. - A lot of people quitting, leading to really spread thin and over worked employees. - Currently going through a “cost smart” initiative were leaders are using a lot of “operational excellence” language that translates into “re-structuring” of support functions.
