Pros

There's a lot of various software platforms being used but not utilized to it's full potential. Most folks are just getting a grasp of PDF files. If you enjoy implementing training and SOP's, this is your place. Late Edit - Lovely Grounds.

Cons

Culture and employee capabilities were skewed during the interview process. Most folks are not well trained on collaborative and space planning software leading to numerous issues with communication and installation fumbles. A so-called "Smartsheet guru" often struggled to edit a dropdown and needed others to generate Smartsheet sheets to lay claim as his own. (This position was stated as new and not a backfill. This was found to be incorrect due to this specific individuals being hard to work with) Company travel was described as fun and high end. Quickly realizing this only pertained to VP's+ and Top sellers. A problem if you're not in that vertical. Culture has a laundry list of issues. Sad "pizza party" reward system that's majority leftovers from canceled lunches for clients. Most folks have burnt bridges between each other, creating uncomfortable back-and-forth's. Misogynistic comments weren't uncommon. Very heads down workplace where folks have no idea there's a lovely walking trail on the grounds. This might be small but it's wildly annoying, maybe it's because it was a personal first....Up-charged snacks and drinks plus no food stipend for an area with little options. For a company who boasts about their value at elaborate conference's, this seems off-brand. HR highlights company survey involvement over the actual feedback presented by employees.
