Regional Sales Manager - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Edline

1.) Generous days off 2.) Free soda!!! 3.) Colleagues who care about the product 4.) World's hardest-working Tech Support team, in my opinion 5.) Many people have a fun sense of humor

1.) Before the Blackboard acquisition: Poor upper management, lack of decent project planning and product focus 2.) After the Blackboard acquisition: Too many tasks thrown on too quickly, getting lost in minor details 3.) This is mainly just me, but I hated working in downtown Chicago - so many people, bums, crazy cabs, etc.

The company that I was working for was purchased by Edline and, although layoffs were plentiful, I was asked to stick around and enjoy the free soda.

Mismanagement from every angle... With information security, procedures, and protocol already in place at a medium/large business, you can only imagine the nightmare of letting a key systems engineer go here and a key developer go there and a key network engineer go here and... It was as if employees were not even evaluated during several buyouts but, instead, randomly picked to stay based on shear luck. New management was so detached from their acquired product that the company almost went defunct within a year and had to be bailed out and bought up by Blackboard.
