Vantaggi
Initial pay was very attractive but they had to pay well to get top talent to come to the suburbs.
Svantaggi
No raises year after year, which is not communicated to you in the interview process. No flexibility, no work from home opportunities. Processes and thinking very outdated and management is unwilling to change or even entertain that there may be a better way to do something to create efficiencies because they have been doing it the same way for the last 20 years. If you ask staff why they are doing something a certain way, their answer is “because we always have”...they don’t understand what they are doing. Discriminatory unless you look like them. Team building is discouraged, unfortunately upper management does not want to improve the very bad morale. Blatant unfair favoritism for employees that are related to the CEO and CFO. Certain director-level personnel lack the professional knowledge, wisdom & ability to lead...not technically sharp so micromanages silly things. Terrible management that does not know how to lead a team. Forward thinkers are discouraged because they might bring attention to others' incompetence. New ideas or suggestions are shot down instantly. Absolutely zero culture and very unwelcoming to new employees. It's like stepping back in time. Old technology. Outdated software. If you are looking for a progressive company where you will be encouraged to think and be developed, this is not the company for you. There are so many other great companies out there.
