Volatile Business, Lacking Qualify Control, Strange Management and NO TRAINING
Pros
-If you like unregulated Nutritional Supplements and Pyramid Schemes, this company is for you; thats there only customers! -Good bonus program, if you are an executive. -Good vacation, and holiday shutdown for forced 2-3 weeks off around Christmas -Newly renovated office -No micromanagement, due to management rarely being around. (CEO lives out of state, COO rarely in office more than 30 hours per week, CFO rarely more than 20 hours per week)
Cons
-The pyramid scheme/Multiple Level Marketing customers are very volatile, unpredictable, and at some point will be (and should be) regulated out of existence. -For such a small company, 3 Chief Executives is very bizarre, with a CEO, COO, and CFO; that are all buddy-buddy and don't listen to anyone else and throw other members of management under the bus seemingly for fun. -Management is given budgets and forecasts by departments and CFO fudges budgets and forecasts to whatever he wants them to be, often with no sense of reality. This also leads to over-hiring for positions, and annual layoffs. See also volatility of stock price. -Low number of customers, and potential new business repeatedly lost due to easily avoidable qualify control issues. -No diversity, exclusively white males in senior management. Women don't pass middle management and very few minorities are hired outside of manufacturing. -When asking for help from absentee senior management, emails and voicemails often go unreturned.
