Absolute Clown Show - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso YourEncore

Dedicated leadership, generous compensation, open discussion about career development, flexible schedule, easily-transitioned to work-from-home model during 2020, and the best Marketing team/duo I’ve ever been a part of. With the multiple Marketing teams I was a part of, the last two years with their current Marketing Director was simply the best professional team I’ve had the pleasure of working with. If you put your best foot forward with every project and keep a positive attitude, you will grow in your skills and career significantly. Unsure of the status as of their 2021 acquisition, but many HR initiatives were starting to have a tangible, positive effect on the organization. This was the ideal place to start my career - I gained more experience in the last three years than I had ever thought I would. This was sometimes due to a lean team, but mostly due to a truly great manager and leadership.

The organization was motivated by sales, so there was a high turnover rate to find the right team members. This made it difficult to implement new sales-enablement initiatives, especially with only a few salespeople participating in the initiatives we worked tirelessly to provide. In addition, some team members did not see their “world-on-fire” working style as a problem; I was often called to drop everything and turn around edited presentation/proposal materials for Sales within 24 hours with barely any thanks from the Sales staff (my manager was consistently in my corner and advocating for better notice - this was an organizational issue). When the pandemic hit and we switched to all-virtual, the early morning/late night emails and assignments grew with people always 5 seconds away from work - this was not as big an issue, but could be addressed if they stay out of the offices.

Talented people; experts have great opportunities with good compensation and flexibility; hire great talent

Too many former marketing / former consultants in top positions with too much overhead. Margins are not in line with competition; set unrealistic financial goals then eliminate top talent when not achieved; pass on too much overhead costs to the account managers without their input; keep trying to distinguish the company with points of difference from competition with bs processes that are mostly smoke and mirrors; very enamored with former high level experts that have been long far removed from where work is actually done - great on strategy; short on being able to actually execute deliverables
