Pros

-it’s a big company if you’re into that -nice location downtown with a gym

Cons

I worked for granite for years. At one point it was a good place to work. You were able to learn and grow, make money, and even get respect internally. But there was a turn, I’d say around the beginning of 2023 where there was a shift . Granite has gradually made it more and more difficult to do well there, which the CEO has explicitly illustrated in his meeting with the team. The culture has become more and more toxic to the point where established and talented team members are being put on plans to be let go or are taking it upon themselves. There is zero flexibility for anything in peoples lives including no maternity leave. It’s a boys club with a my way or the highway mentality.

Pros

No pro's at all believe me

Cons

This company is an awful place to work. They treat their employees like property. They do not allow remote work from home except 2 days a month (Mondays and Fridays not allowed). They do not give salary increases and they pay is terrible. Up until a year or so they required men to wear ties everyday. Their image is that they are such a philanthropic company who gives back to the community. The truth is that all of this is optics and the employees pay the price here. Do not consider this place while in your job search. I promise you will regret it.

Pros

Salary for account managers is good especially straight out of school. Compensation plan sounds good but you may never be paid on anything. It’s a frat house... you like having fun, being in a unprofessional environment, and doing whatever you want— come here.

Cons

Must dress in suit/tie to sit at your desk all day with zero customer facing. College education shouldn’t be a requirement. It doesn’t take an educated person to make 100 cold calls a day. I feel bad for any woman who has worked here or has in the past. I wouldn’t allow my wife to work here as it is disgusting how women are treated. Even industry directors will talk down to these women. Senior people are praised for selling one deal and then splitting everything else to just ride the coat tails of others. Hilarious to hear them on the phone try to make a cold call when they’ve never had to. Can’t email leads as this company is completely old school.
