Pros

I've only been here a few short months, but the people at Renaissance are some of the most dedicated, intellectual, and caring team members I've had the good fortune to work with. In my 20 year career, I have never worked in an environment where everyone was dedicated to the core philosophies of the company. I'm surrounded by passionate, hard working people and that makes every day a joy to come to work. Communication channels are plentiful and open. True concern over continuously improving our day to day operation is evident. A clear strategic focus gives meaning to what we do every day. For the first time, I'm working in a place where management truly cares and where I know my efforts have impact. This is an amazing company with so much future potential...I'm just happy to be here!

Cons

The only con I can nitpick over is the age of some of our computer hardware. We have a lot of older LCD screens, a lack of desktop docks for our laptops, and quite a few hand-me-downs for new employees. I understand the budgetary reasons for this, but productivity can be increased when we stop fighting with older equipment. Again, this is nitpicking as we do have the tools to do our jobs...I'd just like to see them updated!

Thank you so much for this review. It is very rewarding for us to hear that you are off to a positive start at Renaissance. Thank you, too, for the feedback on your computer equipment. The best way to request a new computer is to talk to your manager about the tools you need to be successful and productive in your work. I will look into this as well, based on your feedback. Also, I find myself wondering if you have ever taught leadership courses! Your advice is so spot-on – we can never rest on our laurels. The competition out there is getting tougher every day. That’s one reason we need to always be open to change and new ideas. Your advice is timely and well-taken. Thank you again. — Daniel Hamburger, CEO

Pros

Some of the most amazing people you’ll ever work with. Generally supportive peers. Leaders are kind and not intentionally toxic. Strong brand recognition and a variety of solutions to enable solution selling.

Cons

The culture of the organization seems to have succumbed to the broader climate surrounding politics and education. Immense pressure is placed on sales team to deliver in saturated territories with beyond unachievable quotas for some and cake quotas for others. No cost of living increases, lots of layoffs and unclear path for growth with an egregious lack of transparency from leadership about the glaring issues. NONE of this seems intentional or malicious-it just seems like a lot of behaviors caused by extreme desperation.
