Copeland reviews

Old company politics play in a role in work, mistreatment of employees and no repercussions, a lack of basic respect and professionalism from certain managers has created a challenging environment. Always downsizing/rearranging of departments and changing roles/jobs. Files are a mess.

Management culture is toxic and outdated. Many managers have a chip on their shoulder based on how long they’ve been with the company, and they often hide important information from their teams until the last possible minute, leaving you in the dark and scrambling to adjust. Direction changes week to week depending on what their higher-ups are telling them, but you will rarely know what’s going on or why your job role suddenly shifted—communication is severely lacking. Pay is not keeping up with the times, with low compensation overall and “merit increases” of only 1–3% annually at best. Employee rewards have gone from meaningful recognition to a single Panda Express lunch once a year, which feels like a slap in the face rather than appreciation. Everyone who knows their worth and is a strong employee has found a way out, and the company feels like it’s being held together with Elmer’s glue, especially on the sales side. People are quitting left and right, and the morale is like a black cloud hanging over the office.
