Pros

* High job security * Family friendly culture * Smart employees * Support and encourage employee development / invest in continuing learning for employees * Email marketing product has a sticky, strong customer base

Cons

* There can be some bureaucracy although I'd say nothing out of the ordinary for such a large company

Pros

The company is focused on making sure employees are happy and engaged. They are very creative and responsive to employees needs and requests. The people who work there make it a great place to work. People in general don't take themselves too seriously..the one's who do stick out. CTCT has a great mission and most employees feel very strongly about it and support it. There are a lot of fun things to do at work (pro) like skee ball, foos ball, video games etc., but some leaders judge you (and not Gail!) if it looks like you are having too much fun (con)

Cons

CTCT was better run when it was smaller. Too many cooks in the kitchen leave it very difficult for decisions to be made. There are some silos across the company and as far as pay, Marketing, Sales, and other departments make a lot more money than Customer Operations employees although they work the hardest. There are too many managers and directors at CTCT, some who should not have that title. It's difficult to figure out "who has the say" and there are often unnecessary turf wars. It's a big company now that thinks its still small so "growing pains" is the phrase that's commonly overused as an excuse for shortcomings.

Pros

It's a fun place to work with the potential to move up or around to different departments of interest, in my time there I worked on and with several different groups and teams and had the opportunity to learn a great deal which really helped my career move forward.

Cons

During my time there my biggest complaint and reason for leaving would be that there was a bit of an old guard in place, there were a great deal of people in management that had been there for too long and weren't helping the company move forward. I know people that currently work there and have been told things have improved greatly since I left.

Thanks for the review! Relationships and networking are key here and creates many opportunities for cross-departmental collaboration. As you mentioned, it allows employees to have the option to forge their own career paths, which is truly empowering. We hope to continue to improve in the areas that you mentioned!
