Pros

Some coworkers are great. Chairman is a tremendous individual.

Cons

Too many organizational changes. Senior leadership worries more about what the board thinks rather than focus on their employees. Too much turnover; They will fire anyone for any little reason. There is no real “culture”. New CEO has no idea what he is doing at the helm. Insurance is very expensive, no raises for anyone this year, and overall, there is no alignment amongst different teams. Pharos isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread. There isn’t really a focus on print management from a potential customer standpoint. Not many companies really care about it. Our solution is a “nice to have” rather than a “need to have”. I truly believe everything has gone downhill.

Pros

Competitive benefits package. Good work life balance compared to many companies in the industry. Flexibility where needed, depending on the role. Opportunities for cross functional collaboration. Supportive colleagues who are willing to collaborate. Leadership that is generally approachable and open to questions. A culture that values professionalism and accountability. Feeling that your work contributes to meaningful outcomes.

Cons

Role clarity may shift during reorganizations or strategic pivots. Some roles may require managing many priorities at once. Some decisions or changes may not be communicated as clearly or as early as employees would like.

Pros

It was a wild ride to say the least. The current CEO should not be in the position he is in, he should stick to marketing, although I am not sure he was even good at that. Scatterbrained is not a strong enough word for accurate description. The people you work with day in and day out are great, for the most part, and most of them truly do want to see the company thrive. Management on the other hand doesn’t seem to care much about talent as much as they do about numbers that other companies are meeting, but in today’s age, hitting the right person at the right to to speak about something that isn’t a priority or a thought until it’s broken is difficult.

Cons

The sales people get away with doing nothing. The cycle is long, I understand, but the basic concept of follow up and consistency is definitely not instilled in any of their practices.
