Pros

There is a laid back working environment. Dress code is very relaxed. Paid parking in downtown. There are some very good employees that work here.

Cons

Low salary. Focus is below the average in salary. Nepotism runs rampant here. If you brown nose or are friends with the powers that be, then you are set. People have been giving promotions to positions that they have absolutely no business being in. Some employees are blamed for the incompetence of others.

Dear Anonymous Employee, I would like to start off by saying that I am very sorry to hear of your negative feedback. We do value all of our employees and their opinions we welcome any feedback you can bring to our attention. We encourage all employees to voice their opinions if they don’t agree with a policy or feel that they or others are being treated unfairly. I have an open door policy and would love to discuss these issues with you. I would have to disagree with you in regards to salary not being up to par with the industry, as our annual increases are generally 2-3 times the national average. We at Focus are very big on having a team environment within the office which is why we try to minimize the amount of employees working from home. Please understand that the offer letter you signed and accepted stated that you would be working 40 hours per week in the office. We do understand that some circumstances warrant it, and is determined on a case-by-case basis if it is deemed necessary. Some jobs however cannot be performed from home based on the job duties it entails. We hope that this addresses your issues and concerns. If there is more that needs to be brought to my attention, please feel free to let me know. Steven Harnois, Director of Operations
