Company on the Decline

Pros

Health Benefits & PTO. Talented co-workers.

Cons

Lack of upward mobility or movement to other areas of the business, traditional management unwilling to update with current business trends, strong resistance to working from home even in bad weather, management does not acknowledge industry and market trends, you get punished for market lows by raising quota to make up for company losses, discrimination within departments if you are not liked, micromanagement is out of control, feel like a telemarketer many days, does not care about clients or prospects, it is all about closing the sale and the clients or their employees are not really "people". If you take vacation management makes you feel bad about doing so. Implementation, billing systems and support are an afterthought and clients pay the price. It is a shame because years ago this was a good company to work for but in the last year new middle management, industry lows and internal changes have made it a truly miserable and toxic place to work. The revolving door has started and the good people are leaving as fast as they can. Again it is a shame because they have solid products, talented employees and a good foothold in the market. Unfortunately the company is quickly declining into a truly miserable place to work.

Pros

Terrible none at all here

Cons

Toxic and horrible management, no career path and software is a complete disaster. Lower management besides racist they show favoritism to the inner circle and cause dissension between co-workers. There is no value in working for this company I would stay far away from here.

Pros

Easy access to tollway system. Adequate employee parking. Comfortable office environment/surroundings. Cafeteria on company premises.

Cons

Restrictive policy on working from home (downgraded with new mgmt). Confusing, convoluted, misguided directions from Marketing Director. Wasteful, time-consuming projects. Lack of attention and consideration of employee comments/guidance with respect to new initiatives and legacy processes. Refusal to heed advice and expertise from work colleagues with substantially more experience and know-how pertaining to marketing principles/procedures. Lack of clarity from Marketing Director with regards to implementing new projects (pros/cons). Cut throat work environment where upper mgmt. takes credit for successes and and blames fellow employees for failures. Non-cohesive team (lack of direction and focus to properly execute given plans). Long hours, hectic days, always on call. Senior Mgmt. will contact by email or phone to ask work related questions on days off.
