Pros
New CEO in 2020 with exciting things happening - addressing compensation concerns of past years; fantastic benefits package and 401K represent significant financial value, creating culture with focus on good work/life balance, being creative and taking risks, and collaboration. Lots of investment in the business from the parent company, and the business has really thrived during a tough 2020. Good progress on diversity and inclusion, which had not been focused on enough in the past. There are signs of more women and diverse team members moving into middle and upper management roles. Great mission, good strategy. Leadership team cares about people and the business.
Cons
Still need to improve communication across the company. So much is going on and need to work harder to make sure everyone is in sync and the right hand knows what the left hand is doing - still feels sometimes like we are juggling 5 flaming torches while jumping rope. Not an unusual challenge for a company that has grown revenue 10X and acquired 10+ companies over the past 8 years. Good work trying to tap into the great potential of our employees. Need to keep making progress here, the individual contributors have passion and great ideas, we need to keep getting better at this.
