WorkWave reviews

Not many in Workwave will be honest and share what we are all thinking so I will do it! Be warned... over the past few months many great employees have been let go ...they had no notice that lay offs were coming, they were blindsided, no warning, no PIPS, no reasons, some were with the company for many years. It was not due to performance. No notification was sent out to the balance of the company about each departure you only found out if you went looking for the person or if the rumor spread to you. What do you think this shows the rest of us? Here today gone tomorrow... and that we are ALL at risk currently and we can all be gone in a day with no notice!!! Who is next to go? Of course this is causing many to start looking for new employment and rightfully so. Several great people have left on their own over the last few weeks..... and more are coming for sure because there is no sign of change or improvement. Communication at this company is lacking (unless they are boosting about a recent award or are asking for good reviews so that they can get another award). The company has no formal HR department, there are only few in talent management who recruit, they sub out all other areas. A company of our size needs people who are trained HR professionals and know how to be confidential. There are internal surveys like Culture IQ which are supposed to be anonymous, but this is doubtful and we all feel they are a waste of time, no change came from the last round, in fact things have gotten worse. There is not one person that employees feel they can confide in if or when there is an issue. One of the core values is to Speak Up... but to who only a select few have power in the company and you run the risk of being labeled or let go. You only get communication if you are in the know and in the C Level circle of friends, unless it is a fluff bragging email or a half year company meeting. The company is looking to move to a much bigger office space with lots of overhead and unfortunately C Level Management is chopping heads to run the company much leaner and offset the tremendous costs. (we all see what is happening here). They have lost site of what is important here. They should be concentrating on the many broken processes within the company such as halting selling a product that was released way to early, support, onboarding, finance and to retain our clients instead of worrying about moving to a prestigious location and how many awards they can get, so they can sell or go public some day. Who cares about the awards if the company's foundation is broken? Also there is to much of a buddy system here amongst the leadership team. If you are not part of their circle and socializing with them outside of work you are a risk and need to watch your back. An additional con is that the salaries are much lower at WorkWave compared to the industry and the company is moving into a building with other software companies so they will have a lot move competition for a resource pool for talented candidates. I guess the good news that if someone gets laid off there will have multiple technology companies in the same building to reach out to........

- The work environment is hostile - There are a lot of clicks within the departments - Sr. Leadership is self centered and doesn't practice what they preach. - Salaries are a joke!
