Poor leadership

Pros

The employees at CRTKL are wonderful. Friendly, supportive and professional. The company supported full time remote work during the pandemic.

Cons

Leadership is inconsistent and chaotic. They are big on announcing "new directions" but nothing ever changes. Accountability is emphasized, but leadership and supervisors fail to set examples by their own behavior. All talk and no action. Suggestions for how to improve systems (at no cost) are routinely ignored. By ignored I mean absolutely no response. It's as if you don't exist. Leaders seem to try to demonstrate their worth by being too busy to get organized. All tasks are urgent, even though they could have been handled in an orderly fashion with a tiny bit of planning. Leadership encourages employees to speak up if they see a problem. My observation is that employees who speak up soon find themselves let go. Better to stay quiet if you want to keep your job.

Pros

High profile project. Nice work environment

Cons

Low pay. Long hour. HR keeps saying they are matching or above the industry pay standard which is really weird. those people that leave at least get 30% or even 50% raise at other firm. How could you possible keep good designer with your firm?

Thank you for your feedback and perspective as that makes us better. We research what is going on in the market along with many other factors when conducting salary analysis. We also believe in total compensation not only the base salary. We have invested in great benefits and wellness programs to support our people and give them choices. We will continue to evaluate salaries and make improvements if needed.

Pros

Great office space and location

Cons

Male counterpart was making 30% higher salary than female counter parts. HR said he probably was just a better negotiator.
