Terrible Company Do NOT Reccomend

Pros

This company is very good at drawing you in and making with promises of growth opportunities. In reality, there wasn't at all and they let go around 15 employees because they over-committed to hiring new employees and were over-zealous about their revenue sales target for the year. I was completely blindsided when I was let go of and highly do not recommend leaving another job opportunity with Astound being as unstable of a company as they are. Also people are fake nice.

Cons

They have a false sense of profitability, and no company culture or employee retention values.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback and are sorry to hear of your concerns. We aim to fill the roles that are necessary for the growth of our company as well as to satisfy the needs of the projects at any given time. As demands and needs do change, naturally, companies need to reassess the current state and make decisions based on these factors, Downsizing is never an option that any company favors, however, the reality is that the market is ever-so-changing, and with the recent great resignation, there was much movement on both the employer as well as the employee end. It is a time where there are many opportunities in the market and everyone is trying to find the best way to be successful. Our company culture is evolving and improving each day. We take great care to make sure we get employee feedback and are open to suggestions on an ongoing basis. We currently have a calendar of events that the amazing social committee manages and makes sure to plan fun events for employees! Again, we do apologies for your experience and do appreciate your feedback.

Thank you for your feedback. Your advice is great and timely, as we have been in the process of recruiting new talent for the last while. We are always looking for fresh ideas and talent, and do appreciate your feedback. Junior designers are typically requiring mentorship and patience, as they are still learning and recently out of school. We do appreciate you pointing this out, and hope the team will take the time to provide the learning that is required to get them on the same page. Thank you for your response.
