Good people, but very stressful situation

Business Outlook

Pros

Generally, the people I worked with were very nice and professional; Always went the extra mile to support our projects.

Cons

CED is owned by an international real estate company and has recently become very profit-centered. While I understand the need to be profitable, I think that has taken precedent over client service. Quarterly closings are extremely stressful and overall culture has been negatively impacted. The accouting system is also extremely complex and very difficult to navigate, even with training.
