Pros

The pay and benefits are comparable to other companies. Most of the people are nice to deal with.

Cons

They over promise and under deliver. They will tell you they want to hear from you and they want you to feel comfortable speaking to senior management when there is an issue, but when you do you become the black sheep quickly. Then they completely ignore you! It's very strange. When you need to hear that they are unhappy with something, they don't like to say it to you, then you have no idea that something needs to be corrected and you continue to do it wrong until they decide to let you go. When it comes to training, they are the worst I've ever seen. Be careful what you believe!

Pros

Great onboarding process, great HR team. Other departments were friendly and welcoming.

Cons

Going into this role, I was excited and looking forward to learning an entirely new set of skills and growing within this company. Unfortunately, it was the worst working experience of my life. The cliquey nature of the department I was in was repulsive. I was micromanaged yet also excluded and left to figure everything out on my own. My coworkers were pleasant and offered help but they were overworked and unable to do more than answer quick, direct questions. I've never felt so unwelcome or uncomfortable. My direct manager was rude, passive-aggressive, and unwilling to train me. He would walk by my desk dozens of times a day, micromanaging, and making impudent comments. Unfortunately, all managers in that department were similar, hence, the toxic environment. When it's you vs. three abrasive managers, you can't win. I don't expect rainbows and butterflies from management every day but I deserve respect. Even some constructive criticism would have been helpful. I dreaded going to work because of them.

Thank you for leaving us a review on Glassdoor. We are glad to hear you enjoyed our efficient onboarding process but are sorry to hear about your experience while working on one of our teams. The description of your team and managers is far from the working environment that we aim to create at Beacon. We recognize that our team members are our greatest asset and work to provide each of them the space to be successful. Part of that ideology is providing flexibility from a work/life balance perspective and when accomplishing day-to-day tasks. We encourage any team members with similar concerns to reach out to HR or company leadership. Thank you again for taking the time to leave us a review. Sincerely, Darlene

Pros

Holidays, Benefits, Training opportunities, experience,

Cons

Unrealistic expectations, technologically challenged, poor use of time management, no work life balance, poor middle management, very “clicky”, not a company that cares about their employees as individuals.
