Pros
There are parts of the organization where teams still work collaboratively together to serve clients and bring value.
Cons
Over the last three years there has been a drastic shift within the organization. Specifically in the way leaders treat staff members and the cultural goals (adding transparency, advocating for fair financial markets). There are no leaders at Chatham, only managers. Individuals who have been with the organization have been risen into Managing Director roles yet have no ability to grow talent, provide meaningful feedback, or challenge the status quo. As long as they keep getting paychecks, they will continue to serve themselves and actively work to keep others down. This has contributed to ceiling at Chatham in roles, responsibilities, and income potential. Chatham no longer can justify lower compensation and minimal flexibility as it acts just like any other corporation. Unfortunately, it seems that the goal is to simply set the company up for a sale in 5-10 years to profit the C-suite.
