Movable Ink reviews about "pay"

Can be quite difficult to get pay raises and promotions compared to a handful of years ago when it was a smaller company.

Encountered terrible managers — unrealistic expectations, from workload to knowledge. Expect you to know things you have never been trained on all while managing excessive work that is impossible for anyone to complete during normal work hours. This Very toxic and cliquey culture. Pay is not great either!

Some red tape makes things hard to get done

Low pay. Minimal raises. No 401k match. Downhill since PE. Lack of transparency from leadership. Micromanaging manager. No longer practices what they preach in terms of cultural values.

Below Senior Manager level, pay is low with minimal raises. The culture is cliquey, favoring white or white-passing individuals and conventionally attractive people. Long-time employees act entitled and mistreat others without consequences. Incompetent upper management stifles growth, prioritizing travel and pay bumps for themselves over investing in the team. Only the sales team is truly valued, and career progression is uncertain. Despite management's claims, the culture isn't as inclusive as they suggest, especially for people of color. The focus is on appearances and keeping up a facade rather than producing quality products and nurturing talent.

Especially sales leadership truly enables and protects toxic bro frat hustle culture mentality. Over-drinking at company AND CLIENT events, unprofessional employee behavior in-front of and with clients and when incidents are reported to HR, the reporters are pushed out (sometimes immediately). Most female employees fear retaliation for speaking up. But leadership sweeps it under the rug and protects problematic people that drink too much and cross a line (multiple times) if you close big deals. Sales team was not a friendly environment to females. Ultimately reached a point where I was so demotivated not seeing any action taken against very problematic employees (yes multiple) that I no longer cared about my role or the company’s success despite loving my day-to-day team and the original core product.

Since acquired by PE seeing lots of change in the future that seems to not move the company in a positive position from an employee perspective - Less support for clients - Low pay compared to industry averages - Extremely hard to advance - Product improvements needed to make experience better for clients The main reason I wouldn't recommend to a friend is closely related to the PE acquisition.
