      Stagnation and Lack of Direction

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Lenient, not as strict as most places. Originally we did not have benefits, but eventually we got some which were nice. I appreciated that.

      Cons

      Pay is low and raises are rare. Any sort of benefit we receive means no raise for like two years. As inflation is outpacing pay, coworkers are looking for opportunities elsewhere. Moral is pretty low because of this. There is NO opportunity for career growth in this company. Due to OCR (marketed as AI) takes a chunk of the workload now, we are expected to process things that are harder to discern in the same amount of time. So now we have been running into constant teetering of quality and through rate issues. Extra projects we are put on have little or unclear documentation, or there are some odd exceptions not stated anywhere. The constant checking and going back and forth on projects as we run out of work means processing has slowed down, and harder to get back to optimal speed and mentally taxing, but still expected to have the same output. It is a good entry level job, but expect to move on if you want more pay or to advance your career.

      Terrible Leadership / Layoffs / Micro Management / Cheap

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are good people working here that want to help and provide good service. Alas, there is too much mud to slog through.

      Cons

      There is so much wrong with this company. The only real concern is bringing in new business. It doesn't matter that we can't support the customers we have or provide the service they need. We rush to implement new logos regardless of our ability to support them. In the end our CSAT scores are horrible. We hire noobs out of college, because we refuse to pay seasoned developers. These noobs are smart and hard working, but they have no idea they are working for a crap organization. My advice is to run. Run far and run fast. This company will grind your soul to bits and then laugh as they tell you to leave so they can make their numbers look attractive to the board. Did I mention they are Private Equity owned. Yes. Running lean and cheap to squeeze every last bit of profit from a crappy company. Do yourself a favor. Get a job at Starbucks and take advantage of the free coffee. You'll be much happier in the long run.
