Advice to Senior Management

Listen to your employees, you say they are your strength but you don't take them into account. Practice what you preach.

Pros

The decor is very welcoming, in that it encourages creativity. Also, the fact that birthdays are widely celebrated throughout the company, when they occur. My first day was something I've never experienced anywhere else: my name was displayed on a computer monitor, which was visible to anyone entering the reception area, and there was a bouquet of flowers waiting for me at my new desk! This was truly a first day unlike any other! Another thing that was pleasant was that whenever holiday weekends occurred, the company was very generous with catered food, which was made readily available to their employees.

Cons

Review of one's performance was not adequately communicated. This was due to my immediate supervisor not making this clear to me when I was being considered for hire. She and I had a conflict of personalities, when I unintentionally did things which displeased her, she came off as so intimidating that I found it very difficult approaching her after the fact, despite having apologized. This behavior continued, and the only time I was ever made aware that I was under a probationary period at all was three weeks into my time there, which did not leave much time to improve as best as I could. The end result was that I was terminated, due to "performance failure" My side of things is that this occurred because I was not made aware of any probationary period before I was hired. This and the fact that their work environment was more intensive than my previous experiences are why I could not meet their standards.

Advice to Senior Management

That they inform any new hires of the length and extent of any probationary periods they will be subjected to.

Pros

Great Atmosphere, good pay and great career potential, work life balance is encouraged. They have great family benefits, allow kids at work even dogs. Great bonus tiering and great review system. Treated like a family, can move around to other company offices. Encourage creativity, out of box thinking and adventure. Communication is key at Ryan at all levels. Employee morale is fantastic. Senior leadership manages and mentors new hires to be the best.

Cons

International Companies, longer projects, bigger clients
