Pros

I can say this was my favorite job in all my career. SevOne had a 4.6 Glassdoor rating when I joined and I quickly saw why. We could be innovative and evolving, and we had a sense that the sky was the limit to what we could accomplish. I had the opportunity to make a genuine impact within my department and for the company. I was given a lot of freedom to test new ideas and push for positive change.

Cons

All the above pros diminished constantly and dramatically over time. Management became disconnected and out of touch with the genuine issues hurting the business and the people responsible for getting things done. The organization (and very true for my department) became very top heavy. The disconnect widened with each passing quarter. Continuous "new initiatives" confused priorities and diluted our ability to execute deeply. I still loved what I did, but I had to pep talk myself and my team continuously. In the end, all that we accomplished was treated as a little thing, and we were all let go.
