ESFM reviews

Pay could be a little higher

In order to thrive in this work environment, you have to be cutthroat. There is no loyalty for those that have been at the company for years. Money makes their world go round and if you can't ensure the top people are getting their yearly bonuses, you will become a target. More work dumped on you with no additional compensation. Lack of leadership - they put people in positions who have no knowledge of the trade and no clue what they're doing. I had a senior level VP actually tell me he had no clue how to run the division he was head of. Unrealistic expectations/lack of training - with no guidance, I was instructed to perform tasks out of my wheel house with management knowing full well I did not have the proper tools or training. Promises made regarding growth but just hot air - ESFM wants to keep their boy's club intact, they know who they are. And if you aren't willing to play by their rules, you're beneath them. Unfair pay - I was grossly underpaid in my position and when they hired a replacement, they bumped up the pay I should have been receiving. HR violations left and right - we were constantly told to call the SPEAK up hotline in the event we would like to file a complaint. HR would perform their 'investigations' and there would be no action taken. We were constantly demoralized by client comments and ESFM leadership would not push back. Clients are allowed to say and treat people like garbage and we'd have to suck it up because they were paying the bills.
