This company has one of the most hostile and unprofessional cultures I’ve encountered. The sales floor is almost entirely male, and women are routinely spoken over, dismissed, or treated as secondary. This behavior is normalized and in some cases, implicitly encouraged. Any claims of valuing diversity or inclusion feel purely cosmetic.
Diversity overall is severely lacking across teams and especially within management. Advancement appears insular, with the same voices amplified repeatedly while others are ignored. New perspectives are NOT welcomed unless they align perfectly with existing leadership opinions, specifically the CFO who tends to feel threatened when any type of feedback is presented.
Pay is far below industry standards, especially considering the expectations placed on employees. The company demands high output, long hours, and constant availability while offering compensation that does not remotely reflect market rates. People burn out quickly and leave as soon as they realize how underpaid they are.
There were also serious ethical red flags. There were many situations where financial performance and internal metrics were selectively adjusted, reframed, or emphasized differently depending on what best served management at the time. Transparency is apparently flexible and if you talk to anyone who isn’t kissing the ring, trust in leadership is nonexistent.
Management behavior only worsened these issues. It’s common for managers to openly speak negatively about employees and other leaders behind their backs. There is a lot of ego in leadership and behavior driven by gossip, fear, and self-preservation rather than professionalism or accountability. Respect was inconsistent and often conditional.
Overall, this is a workplace where favoritism, poor judgment, and questionable practices are treated as normal. I do not recommend.
