Growth opportunities overshadowed by poor work-life balance - Portfolio Sales and Marketing Manager Cardinal Group Companies Employee Review

Cardinal Group has been one of the best companies I've worked for. Leadership genuinely invests in employee growth, and there are countless opportunities to learn new skills, take on meaningful projects, and advance your career. Collaboration across departments is encouraged, and I always felt that my ideas and contributions were valued. One thing that really stands out is the culture. People are supportive, approachable and willing to help one another succeed. Whether I was working on-site or remote, I consistently found leaders who cared about developing their teams rather than simply managing them. The company also embraces innovation and is willing to evolve, making it an exciting place for people who enjoy problem-solving and continuous improvement.

Like any growing organization, priorities can shift quickly, and adapting to change is part of the job. Communication between departments can occasionally be improved during periods of rapid change, but leadership has generally been receptive to feedback and continues working to improve processes.

At first working at Cardinal was great! There were lots of resources given to you and they were up front about how you can grow into the company, what avenues you needed to take. They truly enjoyed my feedback and I enjoyed their's.

I worked for this company for many years and they have significantly changed as they have grown. It used to feel more like a family versus corporate. And the politics weren't that bad. NOW the politics are super heavy. I was amazing at my position but I made one person angry and ever, since they made it very difficult to do my job. Additionally the culture is great in certain areas but there are plenty of people in corporate that should not have their jobs right now. They do not do their part, they micromanage teams onsite, and they are disrespectful. My manager was delightful but they were given too much on their plate and they had no time to train me. So everything that I was getting in trouble for (all for which originated from the one person I made angry), I never received constructive feedback on how to improve. I am incredibly disappointed in how Cardinal is evolving.
