Pros

The people and working environments make it a great place to work. Always challenging and new work. Most people are focused on doing the right things and are enjoyable to work with.

Cons

Very slow to fire people, give people too many chances or end up making them individual contributors instead of doing the right thing. This causes more drama on the team then necessary.

Thank you. I understand your point. I can't speak to every scenario but we believe in coaching employees in situations where their performance is lacking. Sometimes coaching may not work and the individual will leave the organization. Sometimes it's a matter of the person being in the wrong seat and they are moved to a more appropriate role. It can be more of an art than a science but our intent is to be rigorous in the process and for employees to not be surprised if they lose their job. Thank you again.

Pros

My manager was very supportive she would give great feedback and try to help me grow . The people were awesome. My coworkers were great and supportive.

Cons

For all the projects we had regional managers there was one that had it out for me. This person was relentless and I went to my manager. The problem I had with this person was they never stop coming after me and my manager tried to stop this person in their tracks, but they tried a way to come after me. My manager’s manager was kind of not a good manager because he was all about the numbers and he didn’t care about the person. He never once had a one-to-one conversation with me I noticed that he played favorites with people and it’s just not good to do that. I believe that as a senior manager, you have to get to know your team instead of hearing what other people say. There was a senior project manager out there who essentially threw me under the bus. When people would resign, all of the projects that were left behind by the previous person they would dump it on one person. It is a lot of work to dump on a person. Some managers would help you grow and there are others that will do the work behind your back on a project. There was one who would start adjusting my project numbers and get mad at me. Mind you this was my first year and this manager would throw me under the bus. “Great Workplace?” Please
