Pros
- Great flexibility and ability to work remotely, even prior to covid - Most employees are intelligent and hard working. I always enjoyed coming to work with coworkers - I started at Advicent rather early in my career which allowed me a lot of learning opportunities - Not all leadership is bad
Cons
I think what most people have said on here is spot on. In my entire time at Advicent I saw incredibly high turnover (much higher than industry average), lack of leadership and direction, constant firedrills, and a lack of understanding and a disregard of financial position from leaders. There was no clear go-to-market plan, and executive & senior management tried to shift blame by creating a separate committee to create a plan halfway through what should have been a partially-executed go-to-market plan. I had good support from my direct leaders, however, outside departments heavily influenced our ability to make improvements. I did not feel as though I could progress at this company, nor did I feel that I had support of HR when personnel issues arose. By far the worst thing, which others have mentioned, was the handling of the layoffs/furlough in June. I was thankfully not impacted by it, but the execution was heartless and cowardly.
