Death Spiral caused by Good Ole Boys Network - Database Administrator EMS (Education Management Solutions) Employee Review

Introduced to several different areas of accounting/finance department Contributed to real work through daily accounting activities and financial modeling

Could have been given more on my plate; was able to accomplish tasks given by manager relatively quickly

Small company with hard working employees who really do want to help the company succeed. Mostly supportive team members and the company does have connections with Federal and State Government customers. Good work life balance and ability to work remotely was a plus. I worked full time from the west coast while the company was based out of East coast.

Poorly developed products that don't meet customer needs. Big promises with weak delivery and support for customers. Management is clueless and does not take advice of the people who know the product, customers and the work. The company will go all out and blow the budget for marketing and advertising of their products and has no idea what to do after that. It pretends to know what their customer wants, but when reality sets in, customers usually end up disappointed and frustrated with their product support. Management never listens to the sales people and medical consultants and improvement and continues to do business the same as they always have. There is no growth in this company. Nice place to start out, but leave the first opportunity you get.
