The little company that can't.

Pros

There are some incredibly talented and devoted employees that made the work experience enjoyable.

Cons

Unfortunately, upper management consistently ignores the employees in the trenches that are keeping this business afloat. They are frequently dazzled by and then hire self-imposed experts whose past experience is completely unrelated to this company's purpose and goals. Speaking of goals, what is it this week? The focus changes frequently with no clear direction of how that goal of the moment can be implemented. And of course, don't expect resources to achieve the goal because resources are not evenly distributed. If you're not on the golden children team, don't even bother asking. The company use to be a great resource for consumers. Now? Not so much. The site is a mess and too time consuming for the regular user.

Pros

Great workspace. Beautiful design. The environment fosters collaboration.

Cons

- Executives tout innovation but falls short of understanding what it is. - Execs lack vision and strategy. - Owner and execs are focused on current revenue. They can't seem to commit to a long-term strategy.

Pros

I get to work with an amazing team of some of the most talented, hard-working people, who are, ironically, mostly full-time off-site workers. Some recent hires with fresh perspectives, who have influence over design of our consumer-facing products, gives me hope for the future. Benefits are above average, even with the changes to ROWE.

Cons

If you have to teach consumers how to use your website to access the most basic features - and we do - you've done website design totally wrong. We consistently decide what WE want the website to be, and then expect users to conform to our wants and needs. The president told us at the beginning of the year to "ignore the haters." Let that sink in. Ignore criticism from the users of our website. We have glitchy, buggy, and difficult-to-use products all over the website. Attempting to get these fixed or altered to be consumer-friendly results in a, "sorry, no resources for that," answer almost every time. It's disrespectful to our consumers. The elephant in the room - the layoffs. It's understandable that companies go through swings and need to make adjustments. What is entirely puzzling, and contributing to the lack of morale, is that plenty of good people, who bore no responsibility for decisions that led to our current state, were let go, while those who made and championed the poor decisions are still here... and further, are in leadership positions that will determine our future direction. That is beyond discouraging. We hear a lot about accountability, but there's been very little of that relative to our recent failures.
