Bounteous says one thing while doing another - Recensione dipendente - Senior Project Manager presso Bounteous

Bounteous acquired too many companies, too fast and never figured out how to integrate. I feel bad for the next one because it doesn’t seem like anyone learned lessons from the last one. Now the company is a mix of several smaller companies and too many people are vying for power while the old guard leadership seem to be looking for exits or keeping the status quo. They haven’t managed to get on track and it’s been 18 months of layoffs and deferred raises. Their salary bands are not what they actually pay people and when challenged on it they say they can’t bring every up to where they “should be” in the salary bands all at once so we all just have to wait to slowly get there. With deferred raises it is unlikely many will spend the time needed in a role to get to the range in their salary band that matches their experience and value they bring to the company. Missed revenue targets seem to be a repeating theme which leads to the question of if leaders know how to set revenue targets and how to manage a company that they grew through acquisitions. Health care got a downgrade in 2023 and HR gaslit everyone until enough people showed the receipts to prove that the care was worse and since then HR has just said “deal with it this is what you get”. Bonuses aren’t a thing for lower level employees so if your project does well, your account is healthy, and the company is doing well you don’t get any reward for your part in all that. With salary bands being what they are, there isn’t much incentive to work hard unless you are in middle management or above. They talk about how important diversity is but if you look at senior leadership it is predominantly male and predominantly white. A bunch of middle age white guys talking about how important diversity in the workplace is.
