RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at FOCUS Brands full-time for more than 3 years
Pros
Beautiful ambience to enjoy everyday. Most staff are surprisingly good at there job and easy to work with. Laid back culture but people get their stuff done
Cons
Very little career growth opportunities. Your best chance to move up is working in Operations or Marketing. In general the company is not good at planning most things get done based on the issue of the moment. Difficult to push new ideas
Advice to Management
Leverage the strength of the company, your people that know the work well and have great ideas to improve how things get done to grow the Brands Keep things simple, having lots of Brands is confusing enough make objectives simple to follow and measure

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookI worked at FOCUS Brands full-time for more than a year
Pros
Fun Atmosphere Free Food Beautiful Building Nice Amenities Company Parties and Celebrations
Cons
No Career Growth Favoritism No Clear Direction Juvenile/High School Atmosphere Career Ender
Advice to Management
Promote qualified employees from within. Stop promoting unqualified people into Director roles or hiring unqualified external candidates. Too many people are Directors so the titles do not mean anything.
