Terrible Culture

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Free snacks and beverages are provided.

Cons

The culture at Signal is one of fear. There is a revolving door of positions being eliminated, and new people being hired with different titles. The CEO chooses to rule with fear and his ego does not allow him to see the many quality people working for him. He is never to blame when things go wrong, it is always someone else’s fault. Employees are not given a clear path to advance, and there is no attempt to develop quality employees.

Pros

The office offers some perks like great snacks and a ping pong tables. The work itself is relatively easy due to a lack of accountability, which may appeal to some but can be frustrating for those seeking a more structured and accountable environment.

Cons

The CEO fails to demonstrate effective leadership or foster a collaborative work environment. Signal Home Office experiences unusually high turnover, with former employees often considered fortunate for departing. The workplace culture resembles a cult-like atmosphere where differing viewpoints are unwelcome. The company’s five core values seem disconnected from its actual practices: Honesty & Integrity: The environment feels far removed from these principles. Ponzi Scheme comes to mind. Relationships: Employees and franchise owners are not treated with respect. Serving: The only thing being served appears to be the CEO’s ego. Learning: True learning is stifled, as those who had the expertise to teach have been dismissed. Passion: It feels empty and devoid of practical meaning. Additionally, management roles are often filled by individuals lacking the necessary qualifications. Here's a free piece of advice for the CEO: If Signal hopes to achieve its goal of becoming the world’s largest security provider, leadership needs a change. Consider transitioning to a role on the board and letting a capable CEO take the reins.

A Black Hole of a Company

Pros

You get to go to a convention every year, about a third of the people there are nice.

Cons

If you get an offer from Signal’s Home Office I want you to run, not walk as far away as you can. The Home Office is a dysfunctional black hole where dreams go to die. The CEO is a narcissistic, sociopathic, misogynistic monster, who has created the most toxic workplace I’ve ever had the displeasure of encountering. He needs constant reassurance from his executive team and refuses to look at any failure as something he was a part of, instead blaming it on the coordinator and managerial level. Rather than look inward and see that he struggles himself with employee morale and retention, he spends his time planning new seating charts every month and deciding who today should be let go. There is no opportunity for upward mobility or growth. There is no opportunity for professional development outside of the “competencies” he has created himself. He believes that it is not the company’s job to help you grow, but rather your privilege to work here and find opportunities for professional growth in your free time and on your own dime. As for the executive team, there are a few good leaders, but mainly they have siloed themselves and their teams so much that no one’s in the office knows what anyone else is working on at any given time. Anyone above a senior manager position is just a yes man and is focused mainly on keeping their job, not helping their subordinates grow or the company be successful.
