      Great pay and bonuses, but disconnected leadership

      Senior critical account manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Unplug Days - Annual and quarterly bonuses - Salary exceeds market limit

      Cons

      - Leadership is completely disconnected from operational teams. - Focus too much on Great Place to Work rankings, but forget the on-site strategies. - Directors and C-Level Managers live in a different dimension.
