Alcami reviews

It is a madhouse, the turn-over rate is about 85%, so you will constantly need to work your butt off, just to maintain yourself above the sinking level. The CEO is only interested in his own bonus, does not give a hoot about any of the employees regardless at what level below him. Also, he does not care if even the best of the employees will leave, this contributing to the very high turnover rate. Although compensation seems competitive at first look, keep in mind that you will be required to work at least 1.5 times more then what should be the norm, and with that in mind, the compensation is way below average. This because somebody is always quitting their job, and that adds a lot of strain to the teams. If you like working 10-12 hour days with not much support or help, in a constantly changing environment where you will be the required to do a lot with very little, then this is the place for you. Otherwise: run fast, run far.

This place is a house of cards that will fall at any moment. They lack respect for their employees and have a laughable bonus structure. The past few years bonuses were so low, you couldn't even cover dinner and drinks with the payout after taxes. The culture here is oppressive and it's a fend for yourself environment. You'll see behaviors and hear commentary that is not appropriate for a professional workplace. All the teams are stretched past capacity and leadership cannot align its priorities. Too many selfish leaders looking out only for their career growth. All the former employees I've run into in the industry have their own horror story about this place. You will need thick skin to work here and there is no work life balance to help offset the constant insanity. The reviews written portray a bad work environment but are far worse in real life. It's sad because there are enough good people to make the day bearable but not enough to redeem all that is bad. You've been warned.
