Jones Soda Reviews

Pros

Creative energy, like-minded individuals, passion for brand

Cons

chaotic at times, need to clarify priorities and goals

Advice to Senior Management

listen to the people in the trenches

Pros

Great employee perks, laid back working environment, excellent compensation

Cons

Lay offs came unexpectedly, with no indication of upper management. Haven't been able to get a letter of recommendation from my former manager or HR, after I was promised one. Disappointing at the end of it all

Advice to Senior Management

Be honest with employees and let them know of the possible changes that can affect the company

Pros

Really enviable place to work from the perspective of the general public. Cool perks from partners. Come and go as you please if you're upper level staff.

Cons

Hypocritical communication from executive management (layoffs followed excessive promises of 'no layoffs coming'.) Lack of resources, resulting in antiquated tools & systems to do our job. The lack of resources also contributed to lack of employee development & training, limiting our career paths after moving on. Too clique-y/too many inside jokes.

Advice to Senior Management

Don't forget that the employees make this company, not the Board and not the Exec team. Every day, you have a building full of people trying to do the right thing. Just take care of them.
