Vantaggi

The actual job itself might be fun if you have clients in fields of interest.

Svantaggi

If there is one word that could describe the work environment at Cision, it would be "toxic." A constant atmosphere of fear and anxiety hangs in the air, as employees are constantly overworked without any support from management. The lack of transparency and open communication fosters an environment where mistrust flourishes, undermining any sense of teamwork or collaboration. Meritocracy is the rule of law as most employees are underpaid and have an attitude of indifference for their jobs. Promotions and advancements are reserved for those who are the loudest in the room. Witnessing a continuous pattern of unqualified individuals leapfrog over dedicated colleagues exhibits the nepotism that underscores Cision's promotion culture. Leadership at Cision is a textbook example of how not to manage an organization. Upper management pretends to want to hear opinions from individual contributors but you'll be treated poorly if you give any sort of negative feedback. Decisions are made without any consideration for the consequences they might have on the workforce or the company's long-term prospects. The disconnect between management and employees has created a chasm that seems insurmountable. Cision a pitiful reflection of tech company masquerading as a "leader" in its field. Most employees are detached due to pay that is consistently far below industry standards. The company's obsession with cutting costs seems to have blinded them to the fact that fair compensation is essential to attracting and retaining competent professionals. My time within this organization has been nothing short of a nightmare, marked by an unrelenting cycle of frustration, disappointment, and despair.

Vantaggi

Decent work life balance, some good teammates who care about each other and the company makes payroll on time (for most people)

Svantaggi

The executives can’t stand each other and can’t make decisions, so the rest of us were left running in circles. Revenue has declined every year and it keeps getting worse. We had at least 4 layoffs a year and they never communicate them — one day your coworkers just don’t show up. Everyone is constantly looking over their shoulder. The best people have already left because they see the writing on the wall. The products aren’t good and aren’t getting better. They keep talking about Nexus but no one knows what it means or who even wants it. Numbers change depending on who’s presenting them and why. There’s no consistent story on targets internally, which makes it impossible to plan or prioritize anything. PE ownership and puppets in the C Suite meant that every decision gets filtered through “what does this look like for the exit” rather than what’s actually good for the business or the people in it. Compensation hasn’t kept up, especially after layoffs when your workload doubles and nothing changes in your paycheck. No real investment in development either. Bottom line: you’re a headcount, not a person. And they manage by spreadsheet not logic.
