Pros

High quality colleagues and good technical knowhow

Cons

Uncommunicative and substandard senior management that cares more about command and control than results. Data only matters when it supports their pre-defined conclusions.

Thanks for your input. It's gratifying to hear that you consider your colleages to be such an asset. We pride ourselves on attracting and retaining the best people, so we appreciate you affirming that we're succeeding. That said, it sounds like you feel we could be doing more to build better communication higher up in the organization. At your level you are considered part of the leadership team, so we hope that you are communicating your challenges and ideas to colleagues, your manager, and the HR team. Make sure your voice is heard!

Pros

I love my co workers and the ability to make my customers happy. Benefits are alright and I do like the products.

Cons

Modern marketing is non existent and the company has been taken over by sweater vest tech bros who feel phony at best. This company is too large to innovate or be nimble, yet too small to acquire new things to sell. Salaries are just so low now that I might need to leave, then come back just to get a pay raise. I’m seeing similar jobs posted for 20% more base than I make 10 years in. No transparency on advancements and annual raises do not reflect effort and making too close to plan on sales just sets you up for failure in the next year. I’d say use this company for a few years then move on.
