A long time employee who finds myself embarrassed

Pros

I joined Advent eight years ago. Some of my closest friends work along side me. Most tenured employees with tell you that it is the people that make Advent great.

Cons

The last year has been disheartening to say the least. Senior management, people I use to admire and look up to, have proven to be different beasts than I once thought. I have to say that the lack of professionalism around a certain personnel issue has left me shocked, disappointed, and down right embarrassed to work here. I use to believe that senior management was blissfully unaware of the favoritism that went on. I have come to learn that they are the biggest offenders. I have watched people work harder than most, take on other people's work load. They have done so thanklessly while people who sit back and place themselves in the right place at the right time receive undeserved accolades. The CEO seems to be taking orders from someone else - sad. Your office is a visible one.

Pros

- Work life balance - Great co-workers - The office facilities / location are good

Cons

It is not so much what you do at Advent to advance but more who you are friends with. This type of setup makes sure the wrong people rise through the ranks in the company. This is ultimately effecting overall morale and decisions that are made. This shift in culture has really changed how it feels to work at Advent in recent years. Work still gets done, but all the credit goes to the wrong people. This makes it hard to advance the right people and create a more competent and skilled workforce going forward. Unfortunately, due to the general low caliber of management the issues seem to be going unnoticed.

Pros

Dogs and some of the people, and that's about it these days. Used to be a place one could get behind but in the recent years things have changed as upper management seems only to care about maintaining margins. Make too much? Poof your job goes to Florida.

Cons

Career growth is based on who you are buddy/buddy with. Skills, work ethic and production are not even factors anymore. Stagnate product offerings across most of the business units. As you can tell from the other reviewers there are other issues too.
