- Moral Ethics relating to fair treatment of off-site employees - Perceived "Home court advantage" for recognition and career advancement opportunities, no matter the performance, tenure, or work ethic. - Overworked; Under Respected - Reactive, not proactive, to employee turnover - Employee Turnover seems high (At least 10 highly qualified, intelligent, yet off-site employees have left the company, on their own accord, during my 6 year tenure. More if you add in the few HQ employees that also left on their own accord). - Sales driven and controlled, no matter the human cost (Disrespect for support staff time and value added). - Leadership is HIGHLY lacking in effective leadership methods (Authoritarian instead of Authoritative, Permissive to Sales, and often Uninvolved in creating a meaningful, respectful relationship with subordinates). - Communication of expectations is contradicting, unclear, and often subjective or out of the employee's control. - Poor documentation and organization of resources - Little focus on continued education - Little to No follow up or assessment of mandatory training sessions. (High investment with regard to time and in some cases money, but no follow up to determine if further instruction is necessary or if internal ROI was reached.) - Possibly worst of all... when the above concerns were presented to various levels of leadership, it fell on deaf ears. Accountability to apply feedback is minimal at best. - Health benefits are expensive (Not as familiar with the benefits because chose to take on the benefits offered by my spouse's job because they were MUCH cheaper) - Technology is also lacking - Laptops unreliable (but being addressed), outdated software still being used actively (VAX computer system,

High school environment ( cliques, gossip, immature). Many times your leader is young, inexperienced, has never managed a team before, has no leadership skills, gossips about their direct reports. I've had multiple leaders during my 8+ yrs there, all have ranged from bad to mediocre. None are people that I would look up to/ admire/ have had outstanding or impressive careers. So don't expect your leader to have an impressive resume. expect to smile always, play by the rules, never question anything, participate during meetings, always seem enthusiastic in order to get get ahead. Participate in many extra curriculars ( called BRGs) and constantly let people know you're participating. This is more important than actually doing great work and providing excellent service. Outside of the HS culture, the systems/technology is from 1950's, I was around for 8+ years and they have done few improvements. No bonuses or incentives for the work that you do (sales gets the bonus and commission as well as account liaisons). Most of the time, the CC has the client contact, coordinate, plan and execute the program, while sales just sits back and collects the commission (on your work/effort). Sometimes if you are lucky, you get a nominated for an award, and if you win, you get a gift card.
