Extremely Disappointing Experience

Customer success manager (csm)

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The paycheck tends to come on time.

Cons

-Management is the biggest issue. Their lack of diverse experience outside of the company has created an insular, narrow-minded environment. -Mid and senior management have held their positions for too long without seeking external experiences or training. Their resistance to new ideas and change is stifling. -The blatant favoritism is demoralizing. If you're not one of the chosen few, expect your efforts to go unrecognized and unrewarded. -Ambitious employees beware: seeking promotion or self-improvement can lead to punishment rather than reward. -There's an underhanded approach of pressuring employees to quit on their own, probably to sidestep paying unemployment benefits.
