Good company, terrible CEO

Pros

The companies mission is purposeful — they are very up to date as far as their marketing & keeping up with the social media. The company has so much potential.

Cons

CEO is unprofessional, unkind, scattered. Not a great leader.

Don't bother if you're support

Pros

Good coworkers and people. My direct managers were some of the best leadership I experienced with the company. The early days of CTCT also had a lot of opportunities for growth and career development. Fully remote work environment post-COVID was great. Work culture used to be phenomenal, now its non-existent.

Cons

Support is overworked and underpaid. I was having daily panic attacks from the workload and lack of support offered by the upper management to control the queues and ensure customer satisfaction. Customers were consistently upset with our poor product and support performances but upper management seems more than content to just keep working support to burnout than actually investing money into improving their product or working conditions for employees. The company's goals have seriously been corrupted beyond rescue. I'd be surprised if they survived the holidays. Everyone I know from support is trying to leave the company because conditions have only gotten worse. Everyone who has left so far, even if it was without anything else lined up, has yet to regret their decision. If you value your mental health, don't work support for Constant Contact.

Pros

- good work life balance - good health benefits - remote-friendly since Covid - good mission - to help small businesses and non-profits

Cons

There has been an astounding amount of attrition in the past year since the most recent acquisition by a private equity firm. It seems like executive leadership doesn't want to hear why so many talented people have left and instead publicly complains that they were not grateful for what they had. That is not the way to retain talent. Because of this, culture has taken a huge it and therefore morale is at its lowest I have seen in my 10+ years here. That said, it seems like they are trying hard to slowly rectify that. There is still a long way to go in order to compete with other tech companies, but it is refreshing to finally see some movement in the right direction. Sadly it's too little, too late for many.
