Honestly, these kind of reviews frustrate me to no end. They're hard to take seriously but Glassdoor's lenient standards keep allowing things like this to be repeated with little validity to the claims. If you're a prospective team member, here are some facts about CT's workplace- 1. Yes, its a fast paced, challenging environment to work in. For most of our team members that is not a negative- we love challenges of all varieties and we engage them head on. We provide ample tools and resources to manage your time and workload and encourage every team member, junior or senior, to be open and transparent with others about how they're doing with the workload. 2. The idea that we in anyway are 'turn and burn' is INSANE (in all caps, and I'm about to throw in a bunch of exclamation points to make it clear)!!!!!!! Client retention is our #1 goal above all things in the company. So much so, my wife tells me I mutter it in my sleep, and it was my youngest daughter's first words. Honestly, this is probably the thing in your review that makes me think this another faked attack review. We talk about retention at the opening of every company wide meeting. Our team leads review retention in our daily reports. We provide bonus WEEKS of pay for teams that hit retention goals. Its huge to us. And retaining talented, hardworking people is critical to client retention. We lose our talent, we lose our clients, and we go all out to retain team members. Team members can earn their own pay raises through performance (rather than tenure), I personally chat with team members on a monthly basis to get feedback and insight into how they're doing, we have phantom stock incentives, monthly profit share distributions that grow as you work with us, gym reimbursement, device upgrades, Friday lunches, internal awards, and more. Seriously, if you felt like we were turn and burn, you were working for a different company or were self-sabotaging while working here. 3. Lastly, micromanagement. This one I get. For some team members, acclimating to our mixed in office and remote work style and management tools is hard to adapt to. If you're accustomed to disappearing into a busy office and cubicle environment where no one evaluates your contribution and performance AND you like 'working' that way, then don't apply here. CT is performance driven- each team member gets career development goals that are tied to objective performance metrics related to their position. The faster you hit those performance metrics, the faster your income increases. To be able to offer that kind of incentive, we've put a significant emphasis on performance measurement and evaluation. That does come across as micromanagement, but it also allows us to be better at coaching, training, challenging, and growing our team members (who don't mind the transparency). We think its a big advantage to our clients and to motivated team members who know they have the talent to succeed in their roles. Best of luck, whoever you are, wherever you are. Feel free to reach out if you think I'm missing anything. Just like when (if) you worked here, my phone and email are are always ready and eager to hear about how we can improve.

Pros

I've been at Coalition for over three years now and I have seen the company go through so much growth! There were approximately 50 members when I first joined the team and now we’re up to 100+ individuals. Through my employment at Coalition, I’ve had the opportunity to work with so many wonderful people from around the world. We are able to communicate and create true bonds with someone we may have never met otherwise. We’ve worked hard to establish strong communication lines between our work-family members to be sure that our remote workers never feel alone. (I’m a telecommuter!) Coalition also provides many traditional benefits such as profit sharing, paid time off, health insurance (US employees), gym subsidy, equipment upgrades, the flexibility of working from home, and much more. Overall, CT is a fun and challenging place to work for the super organized and driven individual!

Cons

We're always busy so the work day goes by super fast. Oh, wait - that's a pro!

Pros

Amazing Work Atmosphere, Awesome Team, Flexible Schedule, Better Opportunities to learn and grow, Individual development, Various Subsidies like free gym memebership, Profit Share and Free Laptop, Excellent Training.

Cons

I don't find anything that needs to be fixed. The time zone difference is a challenge sometimes but having a flexible schedule and remote nature of job is perk over it.
