Pros

Some of the coworkers are very dedicated and a pleasure to work with.

Cons

A general lack of communication, and, at least in my case, lying. Like some other reviewers have said, this company says that it will let you know if it has any problems with you and will work with you if there are any issues. This was most certainly not true for me. I was terminated quickly and with no warning. The quality of my work was complemented, but someone must not have liked me because I was fired due to "an inherent flaw in my personality." What?! Talk about getting kicked while being down. If you're a new college grad: stay away. This company seems to prey on the young and inexperienced. And let me tell you: you can find better compensation. I did, and I had to be fired to know I could.

It’s true, we have high expectations of all our professionals, including recent college graduates. Although we try to adhere consistently to our practice of giving everyone ample opportunity to succeed, there are circumstances when it is necessary to separate more promptly for the sake of co-workers, particularly if they find one’s conduct unprofessional. In all cases, without exception, we attempt to coach those in need of professional guidance. When there is disagreement about the need for it, both parties are best served by simply parting ways. This, we believe, is fully consistent with respect for the personal dignity of everyone concerned. And, of course, we never fail to pay severance due. We are pleased to learn you have found another position that suits you. With regard to your remark about compensation, it may be helpful to clarify our compensation structure. Compensation at Grant Street consists of base salary and a discretionary, performance-based bonus. Base salaries typically match or exceed market averages, but our bonuses are often well above market. So, while other employers may pay higher salaries, we often pay materially more in total compensation.

Pros

My coworkers were great to work with

Cons

- Management here is extremely poor, even compared to companies where I had lower workplace satisfaction - Too much pivoting due to poor resource planning + management due to a poorly crafted longitudinal vision - Disingenuous execution of cultural outlook - Feedback is inconsistent and not supported by clear metrics/expectations

Response from our President: Thanks for complimenting your co-workers. It is a welcome tribute to our culture. For the past 20 years, Grant Street has sustained an organic, compound annual growth rate exceeding 20%. Surely such an extraordinary track record requires competent management. And, to your point, it requires lots of pivoting to sustain it, which has been and will continue to be possible only by developing what you describe as our newer, “extraordinary frontline staff”.
