Horrible Work Environment

Anonymous employee
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Lack of structure, oversight, and accountability allows some employees to work in areas they otherwise wouldn't be allowed to. This generates some rare learning opportunities for inexperienced workers.

Cons

Total lack of organization or respect from upper management. Parent company treats employees in recently acquired company as borderline subhuman.

Good Place to Work - Lots of Changes

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Good place to work; feels like family. Managers care about you not just as an employee but as a team mate. Good pay, GREAT benefits.

Cons

Since the merger, the waters are a little murky in management. Tell you one thing, do something completely different. Feels a little like moving ten steps back to take two steps forward.
