Run away, run far, run fast - Anonymous employee SBM Management Services Employee Review

The perks are all there to trick you into staying just a little longer. They promise a “bonus package” to supervisors and above, but hitting all of your productivity goals (KPIs) only gets you in the list to be “eligible” for the CFO to decide if he wants to give you a bonus or not, depending on how he feels about your division VP, or your department, etc. Computer programs are outdated, the CEO has fired the entire IT team TWICE in the past 5 years because they weren’t progressing fast enough on his constantly-changing priorities. CEO is also a serial entrepreneur, using the profits of SBM to fund whatever his current pet project is, so he often neglects what SBM needs to run efficiently. The culture at SBM is toxic, and when I was in the job market after resigning from SBM, many recruiters told me that they almost didn’t call me because I had worked there, because there is a history of the toxic culture rubbing off on people that have worked there too long. I lost two potential positions because the recruiters did not tell the potential employers that I had worked at SBM, and when they found out because I was honest in my interview, I was no longer eligible to be a candidate. Bottom line, no matter what your situation is or how desperate you may be for a job, working at SBM will not help you.
