Not good for career growth - Software Engineer Consona Employee Review

Pros

Relatively good balance between professional and personal life (in general, but of course it depends on department and level). Relatively small operation, good to learn many things very fast.

Cons

High turn-over (in all levels, but much more in management level). Most of the times, stress similar to a big company (but benefits / salary of a medium company). Lack of respect with managers and, in some cases, coordinators. Company is not very well organized.

Pros

Consona has a great company culture, and tries really hard to make working for the company a rewarding experience.

Cons

Because Consona was a smaller company, Sales and Marketing could have used more resources.

Pros

Some great people from various acquisitions remain in the company and they make the difficult positions management put you in more bearable. Due to decentralized (M&A culture) many can work-from-home.

Cons

Company values only apply to the workers, not to the executive team (CEO is not Tom Millay as listed in this profile, but Jeff Tognoni). Lip service is provided about being Customer Service focused and "Customer Intimate" but really its about making the most money for share-holders regardless of impact on customer retention or satisfaction. Work-life balance is impossible when newly acquired product-lines are expected to continue revenues despite deep cuts at acquisition-time and regularly thereafter.
