Pros

If you really really really need the money work there. If not, run! The work cease to be challenging about your 3rd day, when you realize that numbers are the only thing that matters to the people upstairs. They don't care about you. your family or the customers. They only want those numbers to stay high.

Very little thought is given to how projects are planned, if they are planned at all. Too little attention is paid to things that could be avoided if the people who actually DO the work were consulted about them before they are implemented.

If the Board and the stockhoders knew how much money is wasted with these seat of the pants ideas, Andy'd be gone so fast the roof would be sucked right off the building.

Cons

No balance in your life. Porr to pitiful senior management. No vision for a future.

 It COULD be a great place to work if they'd get rid of Andy and his droids. Constant pressure, changes in matrixes, goals, pay scales. Monkeying with pay rates, ratios, competitions, etc.

The employees do not trust the decision-makers. They see them make decisions to benefit themselves, then wonder why they are the target of such derision among the staff.

Trust is non-existent. We are treated as if we can't think or way to the bathroom, monitored constantly and it apparently amazes these people that most us are actually able to get to work every day.

Advice to Senior Management

Fire Andy Florance. Clean house. This man knows NOTHING about leadership and everything about intimidation and destroying morale.

Learn to trust the people who actually DO the work! They're out there, in the trenches, working with cleints and customers.
They know how to do their jobs. Tell them what results you'd like to see, then get the HELL out of the way and let them do their jobs.
