Miserable

Premier account analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The sales reps are very successful. I met a lot of really cool people in my time there. Would put 0 stars if possible.

Cons

Everyone else is miserable. The CEO loves to brag about how generous and charitable the company is while a majority of his employees can't pay rent. Rock bottom compensation, unrealistic goals, structured like an elementary school, building needs serious upgrades/renovations.

First Job and Worst Job Out of College

Pros

The location is great, right by the train station, Boston is right over the bridge, etc. The cafeteria's food is not that bad either, and the big bosses don't stop smiling(partially because they're happy to see you, majority because they're billionaires). They do hold weekly meetings though, which was nice. They are extremely goal oriented and that is why they have had so much success.

Cons

The work environment is so hideous that it literally drains your spirit when you walk into the building. Who knows when the last time that carpet was replaced, 90% of the cubicles look like they have coffee stains on them, and the employees literally do the same thing every. single. DAY. Now, I understand the appearance isn't the most important part but COME ON, we are in 2015 and you are telling me you're a debt free BILLION DOLLAR company and you can't make the place look a little more welcoming and happy? You walk in and its like "damn, this place looks horrible". Besides that, the real reason why I gave them only 1 star is because the training was horrible. The woman who led training/orientation not only did not train us properly, but she would sit there and talk about her diet the entire time and how great of an employee she is. She couldn't even train properly. Not only that, but she made me and half of the other employees in orientation super uncomfortable with her use of the word "ghetto". She sat for an hour and explained how a lot of, "ghetto" people used to work at the company and they changed their method of hiring due to this(they switched to hiring majority of college grads). I will let you take that however you'd like to, because apparently people who don't have a college education are "ghetto". And apparently, "ghetto" is an adjective now. I don't know how she had anytime to label people as "ghetto" when she looked a hot mess her damn self. I don't know why she sat for an hour and a half talking about her diet(that no one cared about) when it clearly wasn't doing any justice to her appearance. Over all, I think granite has a lot of maturing to do in their training department. It was the third week and me and my co-workers that I started with were already talking about seeking other employment. If you work there, good luck.

Pros

--Easy to obtain a job. This is partly due to the temp-to-perm system (you are a temp employee for 90 days) they utilize for almost all positions, so there's almost no risk on Granite's end. --Very charitable company. Again, this partly benefits them, but still I'll give them credit. --Somewhat frequent bonuses distributed to entire staff. --Easy access to subway. --Great free gym. --Standard 8-5. Rarely work late

Cons

--No autonomy. No flexibility of schedule; no working from home even during emergencies and everyone must take the same 12-1 lunch break and not a minute more --Being on a cell phone is essentially a fireable offense, restricted internet access. Sure, you should mostly be working while at work but the zero-discretion applied to this category is alarming. --Low base salary for essentially everyone besides Sales and Software/Database Dev teams --High turnover due to unfulfillment/ low salary. Can't say I blame them.
