Company is Undergoing "Change"

Pros

General employees are VERY nice. One free cruise a year for employees, but you have to pay your airfare. And birthdays are very special here. Employees who stick around are highly valued and are eligible for bonuses. Also, big family atmosphere.

Cons

Company is undergoing many changes and do not know what they need or want from employees within certain departments. The marketing department is VERY disorganized. They have brought on a new CMO and other new team members, but just as quickly as I've seen new faces come in, they are gone except for the ones who seem to be "connected". Also, current staff, we are so overworked as we take on the responsibilities of the people who leave and whatever else they may throw at us. IT & Creative are overworked and understaffed. Many of us have become overall unhappy but it seems to be the elephant in the room. On top of it all there is a huge lack of guidance and training for the new individuals they do happen to bring in, so they're never set up for success.

Pros

401k and cruise once a year

Cons

Management needs help/replacement. One department head yells at employees. Mostly the women. It was embarrassing being in the presence of this on a daily basis. One male employee makes inappropriate comments about a females figure and tells another she’s old. Also tells people they need to be destroyed!! Gossip is rampant with this guy. Complaints have been sent to HR and to owners. The manager of this department sleeps, seriously sleeps at his desk all day long. How can you manage and know what’s going on when you sleep all day. Wakes up disoriented and then comes out and yells at some of the women prentending he’s been awake the whole time. Makes jokes with the guy who is in appropriate. HR does nothing. This is because one of the owners has said don’t go to HR come to me! Well this owner is from another country and doesn’t do anything either, because this department keeps costs down. So if you want a honest company the follows the laws of this country go somewhere else. There is always pressure to do more more more. Stressful work environment.
