Thank you for taking the time to post a review on LinkedIn. We work hard to be a company where all employees feel they have the appropriate training and management team support to be successful in their role and I am sorry that was not your experience. These are areas we have focused on over the past three years but recognize there is more work to be done. Thanks again for your feedback and best of luck in your career.
