Faithlife reviews

Be careful if you disagree with the prevailing theological or philosophical ideas, though, as you can quickly be branded (albeit politely) an outsider. The CEOs forward-thinking lack of regard for education and experience means that some people who should not have been hired slip through. Rapid growth. The most dangerous problem is that Faithlife has had too much success too quickly in recent years. Their growth not only in their main product line, but in branching out into diverse departments and "brands" has taken a clique-like culture and worsened it. Inter-departmental communication is not just poor, it is virtually non-existent. Department managers are given free reign - which is awesome with a great department head, and disaster if the wrong person takes the lead. I observed this phenomenon in other sections, then had the displeasure of first-hand experience. The staff was afraid to speak up and tell upper management how they really felt, so department morale tanked, performance stalled, and a large fraction of our current employees left for greener pastures. Unlimited vacation in an environment with young, insecure, competitive co-workers means that you might just look like a slacker for wanting two weeks off after a couple of years' tenure. Or going home every day at 5PM, or not working all week and then working the weekend.

While direct management is great, upper level management is skewed. They under value key positions and are out of touch.
