Pros
Do you know Chris Smith, the CEO? Then you’re hired. Not exaggerating in the slightest. It doesn’t matter if the job position doesn’t exist, they’ll bring you onboard as a consultant if they have to. There are no other pros to working here. Keep looking.
Cons
There’s no room for advancement. Diversity is a joke here. There’s a few token hires, but this is a heavily Caucasian male-dominated company. HR, or “people and culture” as they’re calling themselves now are struggling to define what the company culture is. Somehow there’s no money to promote people, but they can set aside money to try to force an artificial, social media based employee engagement project. Don’t believe the 5 star reviews, they’re planted to boost the company’s ratings. The pay is terrible for what they’re asking people to do. The only ones with a good salary are Chris Smith’s cronies. Everyone else is scared for their jobs. And just to head off the inevitable and predictable response from HR: no, you’re not really sorry that any of us have had these experiences. You’re just saying it because you have to, and we all know it.
