Worst run company

Pros

Not many - the company is run by twin gym rats who are frequently absent. They've had a turnover of 50% of the leadership team. They set you up for failure - and hide it. It's also a rampant culture of going to off-site events laced with alcohol and inappropriate behavior.

Cons

The twin owners spend more time in the gym than running the company.

Pros

Decent location for people looking for technology company in northern Charlotte, Product that is in high demand

Cons

A number of teams have been worked to their absolute breaking point. Tons of turnover, leadership only thinks of employees as resources not people. Only able to work from home twice a month. No career growth: Being good is not rewarded. You won't be promoted faster than the rest and won't get any kind of compensation for going above and beyond. Executives have zero experience in actual people management (especially two owners). Run as far as you can!!

First, I would like to apologize for my tardy response. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. I'm so glad that you like our office location...we love being so close to Lake Norman and all the great restaurants and shops! While our fast-paced growth is very exciting, we recognize that it has caused some of our teams to work additional hours. We are actively bringing in more resources to help and have several open positions that we would love to fill quickly, so if you have an employee referral, let us know! We also hope that our catered lunches, team building events, happy hours, and office outings have helped to decrease the stress. We are constantly meeting and brainstorming ways to improve this and maintain our fun, motivating, and encouraging culture. All ideas are welcome!

Pros

The CEO's are hard working and inspiring to work for. Two stars for the CEO's

Cons

First off there is no communication between the crew of 4 that have come from Food lion in IT and new joiners. You have to beg for workload and if you do you are marginalized. They are not sympathetic or compassionate. I had two losses and I communicated that I wouldn't be able to make it to work via gmail which I'm sure the manager has an account with. Yet the next day They sat me down forced me to sign a disciplinary document which stated I'd be fired next time I didn't email the proper email account they completely ignored the fact that I had called in to let them know on the day of. There is a constant badgering of IMs you'll receive from other employees wondering if their job is at stake. Managment will ask you for suggestions on improving the process but will not take into account anything you say. They are outdated in their skill set thus there is a high turnover in IT and not to mention I've seen 10 people I worked with there in my new company 10! From sales to IT. The HR here is a cover up operation who presents an ideal image of the company while being an enforcer in firing people or disciplining them without reasonable context. She was upset I was late to a 401k meeting when I had an actual meeting for the job I was hired to do. All in all DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY!! If you seek longevity and growth in your skill set and not feel like you are working at an internment camp don't work here.
