Vantaggi

The pay is very competitive and management seems to care about employee personal needs related to family emergencies. To be clear, my direct management while at ETS was very good and worked very hard to make the job as bearable as possible. Also, everyone I worked directly with were terrific.

Svantaggi

ETS senior leadership believes they know everything there is to know about any industry they enter into, even if they've never been there before. I was specifically hired outside of ETS to be an expert on the workforce testing industry and then at almost every turn, my advice and counsel was ignored, making worse and worse decisions, driving my business unit into a more and more troubled position. In short, ETS was unable to adapt to a new market and failed to be able to listen to experienced advice over my almost 5 year tenure, leading to the failure of a major business opportunity. My advice to prospective employees is to be wary of "new" business directions taken by ETS, because they will likely mismanage the opportunity and destroy it. If you are entering into one of their flagship brands, you're likely safe.

Vantaggi

Support of immediate management and coworkers makes coming to work every day a pleasure.

Svantaggi

Where to start... First, the employee performance evaluation process and methodology has changed from 1) performance vs your job description to 2) OKRs which were completely unattainable and meaningless at every level to 3) rocks and outcomes which again have very little to do with the day to day jobs of most employees. It seems the burden for goals and objectives and performance management has shifted from management to employees as they try to define a methodology that holds only doers responsible for the company's success. All this since Amit Sevak took over. Management manipulated the questions in a recent employee survey to force responses that made it look like there was improvement year over year. Of course, when you add a new President between the employees and the CEO peoples opinion of senior management is improved. Of course when you shift the focus to immediate management from senior management, the responses will be improved. Try issuing the exact same survey as the prior year and see how much "real" improvement there was in the numbers.
