Pros

Talented people, smart people, strong Core values, and a solid commitment to training.

Cons

Favoritism, lack of communication, get ahead only when you’re a good self-promoter, innovator of change (but don’t commit the attention to details necessary, or appreciate the people who do deal with the details).

Hey, there! We appreciate your feedback and must admit that you bring up some valid points. As we grow, it is important to periodically look in the mirror and evaluate where we are and where we are headed. We are glad you’ve experienced our phenomenal associates, training, and core values. Our core values are the pillars that uphold our culture and our company. As we continue to grow, we need you to be an ambassador not only for Cortland, but also for our culture. In addition to being intrinsically motivated and results driven, the most successful associates live and breathe our values – and use them as a launch pad to reach their goals. These values drive every interaction, every decision, and every choice made. We’re confident that if we all stay true to what Cortland represents, there’s nothing we can’t accomplish. Thank you for highlighting an area for improvement - we are constantly striving to enhance the associate experience. If you have any specific solutions or would like to discuss further, I would love the opportunity to connect. – Priscila Mattingly #LoveWhatYouDoAndLetItShow
