Excellent place to work - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Paperless Environments

This place has been a joy to work for the 3+ years I have been here. The way departmental meetings are structured means that everyone has a voice and their ideas are heard if they want them to be. Management has a strong belief in Work/Life Balance. There are some days in which I CHOOSE to work late to get a customer taken care of, but that has never been set as an expectation. Every person in the company from the CEO down is very approachable. Management is very open about the state of the company, finances, etc... The company has many small events throughout the year, some in the office, some outside of the office, to show appreciation and to promote camaraderie among employees. The company keeps a kitchen stocked with drinks and snacks for everyone, and will sometimes provide breakfast or lunch.

I don't really have any. Maybe that the company is going through some growing pains right now, but any company that is growing does, and at least this one IS still growing in this economy.

The CEO is making good/bold/reaching business decisions. The senior software developers are engaged and open to feedback. The COO/company is attempting to implement structure for tracking goals and milestones [but may be placing more emphasis on the structure than the function]

-The CEO is absent and keeps each member of the executive team in a silo so there's virtually zero leadership. -Success is stumbled upon and accidental rather than planned and executed. -There are a significant number of ethically questionable and potentially fraudulent business arrangements among some of the original founding employees/investors. -Nepotism and bullying is common place -You are likely to hear jokes from co-workers that are sexist, racist and/or stories from the most recent trip to the strip club. -"Hurt Feelings Report" forms are circulated "as a joke". -Tensions are high and fights are borderline violent/physical. -"Planning" means forgoing actual strategic and tactical planning, but making up for it with more hours, a more demanding task master, and binge coding heroics.
