Pros

Pay seems comparable to the market

Cons

Short staffed and employees are overworked and tired. I started as entry level and every time I promoted my position was not backfilled due to “not having the headcount available”. Ultimately, ended up doing three peoples jobs on top of other duties outside of my job description. Starting work at 6am and not finishing until about 9pm just so we wouldn’t fall behind in my department went unappreciated and concerns unheard. After 8 months of complaints I finally just had to quit. Then I was offered the support needed to help maintain a better work/life balance. I declined as it should not take eight months of asking for help with the workload. It took my giving a notice to make some actions happen. Turnover is extremely high and not worth making work friends cause they will all quit and move on. Even employees being there 10+ years just up and leave due to lack of staffing. But company will spend lots of unnecessary money on other projects and things when if we train and run our departments correctly we will be financially stronger instead of putting band-aid fixes and coughing up $100k+ each time.

Pros

Only pro was the hiring process which consisted of two interviews and then an offer. That should have been the first red flag.

Cons

Private Equity controlled organization. No onboarding process or training provided. You are sent to their HQ for two days of learning how to turn your computer on and how to open a couple of computer applications. They are looking for a zero to hero hire. Be prepared. Tumultuous with lots of turnover. Was told this was a career-long role and in a couple of short months, the CEO was fired, the VP of sales took off. New executive leadership team created an environment of fear and layoffs. Lots of huge egos and very little tolerance for questioning poor business decisions and strategies. No attention given to the voice of the customer and what would strategically help move the needle. It really gives off the odor of a company trying to be sold.
