Pros

The day-to-day teams are absolutely superb. The boots-on-the-ground staff are hardworking, driven, and constantly willing to go the extra mile to deliver results.

Cons

The culture here is broken, driven by favoritism and a clear 'if your face fits' mentality. A select group of insiders gets a free pass on poor performance just because they hang out with the right crowd, while middle and senior managers actively undermine and bully the rest of the staff. Management talks a big game about being an equal opportunity employer, but it’s pure marketing: the internal reality is the exact opposite. On a positive note, the C-suite has seen some recent shakeups, and it's encouraging that some of the worst leaders have finally been sidelined. However, internal support systems lack confidentiality and actively destroys employee morale instead of protecting co-workers.

Pros

Great people, good benefits. Lots of training offered and FAMs are a great perk.

Cons

Company has gone through so many changes in leadership, along with a recent structural change to the overall sales and client experience that is largely negative. Company has met this downward spiral of false promises with “be more positive” emails and company meetings. Patronizing and insulting while expecting sales to continue to hit their goals or risk being terminated (like many have in the past few months).
