Good starter, not long term.

Pros

Unlimited paid vacations (as long as you don't abuse it) Flexible hours Generous sick leave

Cons

There's no direction within the company. They keep buying new companies before taking care of their own that currently keep everything afloat. Everyone not in upper management is underpaid and they're constantly replacing VPs with hiring bonuses. It takes forever to get things done as things need to be approved by several people who don't work with eachother or know what they do. Progressing within this company is almost impossible, people are dropping like flies leaving.

Thank you for your feedback. There are a couple of places you can go to see details about strategy. Check out the recording of the Ask Us Anything strategy session in December. Your Division and Brand will have also shared some detailed presentations in the last few weeks. If you're not seeing those or think there are gaps, reach out and let's chat. If you'd rather stay anonymous you can drop an anonymous question into Ask Us Anything or the confidential Helpline. Give us enough to know what line of business needs more information about the direction and where you have questions and we'll get to work. Please also reach out to your manager or HRBP so you can get more information about your compensation. We have done a lot of big pay realignments, starting with our front-line people, but I understand you have questions about your compensation. Just so you know, some of those VP changes you see are where we don't think there is enough clarity in direction or not doing enough communication. When we hire new leaders signing bonuses are very uncommon. SL - CEO

Pros

Everyone below the line (non-execs) are amazing people to work with. They are usually the ones left behind in the transition that stuck it out or didn’t get fired because of where they work. These are very hard working people that love what they do and who they work for (customers).

Cons

Community Brands has no vision. They purchase successful start ups, change how they do sales, product management, marketing, etc, and expect results first year. They don’t pay industry rates (well below competitive companies) and will only give you just enough to shut you up (if they value you), otherwise they give 1% raises that keep their staff in poverty. DEI is turned into a joke as the all white leadership team discusses “equality”. People are told to work on other CB products without formal training, and then are chastised or receive lower raises when they don’t perform. Sales is given 0 leads all year at the same time their performance indicators are continuously raised; and commission, all but nonexistent. High value leads are given to poorly educated junior sales who “can’t sell it”. Decisions are made without data or cross team education. Employees work 50-80 hours a week for months at a time and are scolded when they need to take paid time off. The work-life balance is non-existent.

The people who have joined us through M&A are doing a great job. Your products and brands are thriving and helping our customers every day. Your voices also matter and we want you to hear you. If the leaders you are working with directly aren’t listening, you know how to reach me. If you prefer to be anonymous and still want to express your opinion on strategy or direction, please reach out to our employee helpline. I have lots of conversations from all different parts of the organization and the insight you bring is amazing. SL - CEO

LAUGHABLE

Pros

We get to work from home.

Cons

The ELT is out of touch with those that work for them. This has nothing to do with culture and everything to do with SALARY! We all get paid BELOW the industry average. The CEO has the AUDACITY to say that raises went up? No, they did not. Maybe for the executive team they did. How about instead of bribing folks with $15 gift cards to get vaccinated, PAY YOUR PEOPLE! I know multiple people that have 2nd jobs because they cannot afford the cost of living. The work keeps getting piled on, but the pay does not reflect at all. Crappy workers got the same raise % as those who bust their butt every day. I am disgusted by the CEO and the fact she thinks she is doing well by us. No, she isn't. None of them are. People leaving left a right. We are losing veteran employees because of pay. Stop saying " ALL TECH COMPANIES ARE FEELING THIS" Trust me when I say, no they are not! We see the money coming in, it is just going into the pockets of the ELT

I would so very much like to sit down with you and hear more. If you’d be comfortable doing so, we can speak directly. Or if you’d rather remain anonymous, you can call our confidential employee helpline and tell us where to look. It is managed by a third party and your privacy is assured. You can access our hotline by visiting the Community Brands Company News Site via our SharePoint. Once on the Company News Site, you will find the link to the hotline on the far-right side of the page. It is the second link under “Important Links.” I have one set of data that tells me we are in range in compensation and that we have made big pay increases across the board (especially junior staff) to make sure we are a fair and well-paying employer. You should have also seen differentiated pay increases based on performance. I can see that you have a different perspective and different data, and I believe you when you say you see a problem. I want to ensure that if we missed a team or role, or you did not see pay increases for our high performers, we are made aware so we can fix it. In case we don’t speak, please know that compensation increases for all employees follow the same guidelines and methodology, including those of our senior leaders. SL - CEO
