Pros

This company has grown well but possibly too quick. Great view of eau Claire Market.

Cons

I/we believe there should be some internal education challenges for leadership roles. System consultants are constantly adding to their skillset while leads and managers are not. Seems the consultants are at risk, soon the company will be nothing but managers if they keep laying off good people. Long View does not own any patents; its success is 100% people. Let go some of the first generation team for good example of fairness. Some employees are close to head office directors, they will be safe, but those who work hard and are not close are not safe. Directors cannot see past their nose.

Thanks so much for taking the time to post a review! Training is an incredibly important component of our culture, as it directly correlates to our Competence pillar. Our internal Leadership Development Program provides a wide variety of training for those in team lead roles and above. We have some exciting changes coming to the program this year that we are excited about, so hopefully you will start to see some positive changes in this area. Also, your local People Services team is always available to hear any concerns or feedback that you have at any time - our door is always open!

Pros

Large Canadian presence and solid leadership from the top, but not so much in the Sales org

Cons

No marketing or demand generation makes it very hard on the sales team. Middle managers/VPs can be toxic depending on your location. No cohesion across departments.
