Cons
IMPORTANT: READ BEFORE ACCEPTING JOB The list of cons are very long. The company is in the ethical and compliance industry but the culture is the complete opposite in terms is toxic. It is owned by VC firms so NAVEX goals are short term not long term. This is how they see all employees… only short term and if you have worked at the company for years they do not reward nor do they care about you. They are quick to fire you and then add a new employee as if nothing happened. Here are a few reasons why you should not work at NAVEX and find a different company: - Low pay: below the average. - Work/life balance terrible: You are constantly working throughout the entire day due to angry customers or unnecessary admin that does not let you focus on selling. Even if you wanted to get off sooner, the load of work piles up leaving you to work longer hours. - Out-dated product: the user interface on their product looks like it was created in 2010. The company is losing customers in enterprise because other competitors have better product. Customers will complain about how old the software looks and how it is not user friendly. - No PTO: They say “unlimited PTO” but they will guilt you and you don’t want to take any time off. - Micro management: Managers are constantly in every meeting and will ping you randomly to ensure you are working - Upper management: C-level executives only care about numbers and puts massive pressure on sales managers which puts pressure on the entire sales organization - Unethical sales practices: Upper management do not care about customers. They want to lock in long term contracts so customers can’t get out of contract. The company is doing bad so this is a way to help future revenue as many customers leave after their contract is done. - Constant turnover: Employees are leaving NAVEX constantly. When working for 3-6 months half your team has probably left leaving you with new relationships to build. - No diversity: Upper management has no diversity. It is all Caucasian men with a small amount women. - Expensive benefits: The benefits are okay but expensive.
