Pros
Office Location, is OK. Salary, wasn't too bad. The industry is interesting and the Products/Services are beneficial to society. Some colleagues were genuine and effective.
Cons
Staff Turnover - The Machiavellian nature of this workplace leaves no-one untouched. The fact that in the last 6 months at least 10 people have left really says it all. I am genuinely surprised that a company the size of GuildLink is still functioning, given the rate of staff turnover and subsequent loss of IP and momentum. Teflon Coating - some employees can do no wrong and are untouchable. Everyone else gets shut down for trying to fix a problem or improve a process. Lack of Direction - senior leadership can't make a strategic or brand/ product decision and stick with it. Everything GuildLink does is a reaction to a competitor or an ill conceived notion.
-Senior Management are too busy fighting amongst themselves to lead the company.
- Communication is non-existent
-Experienced people are hired but then told how to do their jobs rather that let them get on with it.
- Senior management are in over their heads and reliant on consultants to tell them how to run a company.
- Experienced and once passionate employees became frustrated and left.
- Low pay and practically non-existent benefits unless you need counselling (and to be honest if you work at this place - you probably will!)
- The extremely high staff turnover says it all really.
