Accord Group Reviews

Pros

have traveled all over the country (good & bad), made some very good money most of the years I have been here

Cons

never know what to expect, from different manager experiences, to different system changes every year, expectations go from one thing to another

Pros

Most of the people are cool and they are really good at making you feel like they care about you as a person but they don’t.

Cons

Everything. Most of these other reviews are from project managers or managers that do not work for Accord Group Directly. Accord Group is the parent “corporate” location and there are other locations in different states that are not Accord Group. Sexist. If you’re not a male you can’t get a good job here or get paid what you’re worth. Money hungry. The only thing the owner and this company cares about is figuring out how they can bring in more revenue. Unprofessional. They ignore emails that they don’t want to respond to and they take weeks to respond to new applicants if they even do at all. Liars. These people will tell you anything you want to hear. They tell you that if it weren’t for the project managers you wouldn’t have a job there. They tell you to deal with the problems that arise (that shouldn’t be handled by admin) instead of a manager handling the issue. Instead of hiring an additional person, they continually take tasks from other people and pile it on top of your current work load. Unless you’re a project manager, no one values your opinion. They hire people close to them/related to them, and don’t care about whether that position is a good fit or for them or not, but because they’re a personal relationship, they hire them anyway. The supervisors (and their supervisor) probably don’t know what your job duties are and they definitely wouldn’t know how to do your job. They deny most vacation requests you put in to use PTO because there is no one else that can do your job while you are gone. The people that have left good reviews for this company are either high ranking/paid employees or managers/project managers that don’t actually work at the Accord office. This company and the people that work for this company have absolutely no integrity. Don’t expect them to follow through with anything they tell you.

Pros

Close relationships with dept, company culture.

Cons

This is not to bash the company, but rather stress to management that things need to change. I am the second employee to leave the production, or ‘customer service’ dept due to the following reasons. You will not be paid fairly by any stretch of the imagination. The workload is tremendous, and only seems to get lighter if you constantly complain. Management will not specify duties until AFTER hire, and continue to change them, without changing your job title so that they don’t have to increase your salary. People are put in management positions that are not a good fit for them, typically because they are related. They want you to manage your time well but make that nearly impossible with how many meetings/book clubs/ ect. The favoritism is blatant- a deciding factor of who gets to work from home/go on company paid trips, etc. You will be expected to create processes and implement, just for management to veto- causing wasted time. The managers in the field are allowed to do/say/act however they want, and are not made to follow processes, making your job EXTREMELY difficult.
