Pros
Nothing to write here
Cons
Company operates like a family business. No learning, no training, no management. HR team is a group of teenagers who know nothing and never of any help.
Advice to Management
Please value good employees and get rid of the ones not working .

Pros
* You get a paycheck
* You get to meet new employees on a weekly basis (turnover is incredibly high)
* You get to meet new c suite, and svps on a monthly/quarterly basis (again turnover is quite high)
* You get to work in a call center like office
* Management changes company strategy on a yearly basis
* No laptops, so you don't have to take your work home with you
* You can come in at 10 and leave at 5Cons
* The company retention rate is terrible. Employees typically last 6-9 months
* In the past 4 years there has been 4 different CFO's, 3 CMO's, 3 CIO's, as well as 30 or so different SVP's-VP's joining and leaving the company. About 75% through terminations.
* CEO/Owner runs the company his way, doesn't allow much input. If you disagree with him you'll be let go
* Any complaints to HR falls on deaf ears
* Bonuses are not transparent, and take 4 months to get paid, raises and promotions are few and far between
* Company is incredibly siloed, legacy employees are very protective of the work and do not like collaborating
* HR/CEO frowns on staff socializing out side of work
* It is 2018 and staff still use desktop computers
* 2/3 of company is based in IndiaFareportal 2018-10-10 16:49 PDTHelpful (8)

Pros
Great location, great leadership principles, aware of cultural improvement opportunities, smart seasoned subject matter expert employees
Cons
leaders that do not know how to organize their own time, who believe they need to tell people what to do and how to do it, lack of respect for the talent they hire
Advice to Management
Replace the top management reporting to the owner they ARE the problem. Train the leaders in time management so that every day is not a fire fighting day

The People and Coworkers
They have a have a good heart and are personable.
The holiday parties are sooo cool.Cons
Had 5 different managers, 3 different roles and did not receive any merit increases or awards for going above and beyond job descriptions.
Too much politics.Advice to Management
Be fair to employees. Do not put a salary freeze or cap on employee salaries when their pay grades are wrong in the system. Use the data they bought and make sure employees are compensated fairly.
