Pros

None I can think of unfortunately.

Cons

The level of dis organization at this company is unheard of. Stay away from this company at all costs. You will be micro managed in every thing you do. You will not be happy working here at all. They will lie to you on a daily basis. You will not get paid for any expense reports you submit. As they will find a reason not to pay you and reimburse you for money that comes out of your own pocket. Management is totally out of touch with employees.

Pros

Once you make it past workday training it seems nice.

Cons

Workday training is 12 hrs a day including hw. You need to keep your camera on for 6-8 hours a day on zoom. If you fail you’ll be let go and wont be able to retake anything.

Pros

great consulting expertise, great people at the mid-management level and below

Cons

internally NOT "collaborative", immature business processes and tribal knowledge, not a sales organization, they struggle to solve sales challenges and just dismisses them if they are not an easy fit, the pricing is very very expensive and not competitive, the CEO is involved at every level of everything and is a micro manager, overall there is lots of sales resistance and and sales is not enabled to be in charge of the sales process

We are saddened to hear of your mixed emotions during your tenure at Collaborative Solutions. We work to create a positive work environment where employees feel supported and valued, and we’re sorry your experience was different than most. We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best of luck in the future.
