Ungrateful Management Run By Corporate Sociopaths

Loyal employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay was Ok as well as some of the training.

Cons

They did very little to promote those actually excelling and lost their culture in about a three year span. They promote woman and/or minorities that support a very liberal management agenda. If you are a white male, you have zero chance for promotion. A case study on how not to treat good employees. I actually had an HR person tell me I was over paid when it wasnt even relevant to the conversation and my reviews were really good.

Business Outlook

Pros

An international business opportunity. The company has a very flexible business structure. The top management is in the US. Ethical values are very important for the company.

Cons

A very complicated business structure. Difficult to understand cross-functional relations. M&A's are very common. Almost every year new companies added.
