ChoicePoint – “Sold the company without regard for his people and while claiming a culture of openness, has been short on information.”
Pros
It depends on the office. My group was a good group of people who enjoyed working with each other. One obvious reason to work for ChoicePoint is because the pace of life is a little slower there. The corporate culture (and dress code) is pretty laid back. The healthcare is excellent and the salary is about average to maybe slightly above.
Cons
The politics within ChoicePoint can be pretty frustrating and it is difficult to get things done there. It's a conglomeration of people from many different companies at many different locations who were acquired by ChoicePoint. There are a large number of people who are only interested in following procedures and aren't able or willing to think out side of the box to come up with solutions to problems. It can be extremely frustrating for this reason. Aside from that, right now we're going through a merger which has the whole place shook up and uncertain as to what happens next.
Advice to Senior Management
They need to focus a little more on a culture of achievement and make bonuses meaningful rewards for exceptional employees.
