Poor management and transparency - Vice President Beacon Hill Employee Review

Vice president

Business Outlook

Pros

I got out very early.

Cons

Expect to be micromanaged to the hilt, regardless of experience. Expect compensation to vary widely. Expect to be lied to about said compensation and benefits only to find others have what you have asked for, with less experience, though with genetic ties to said management. Expect bennies to eat up a LOT of your paycheck. Expect to be a robot with no opinion about anything outside the walls of that office lest you be browbeaten for it. Expect no transparency at all if the company is not doing well. Expect favoritism from management. Expect to be lied to about why other employees are no longer around. Poorest run company I have ever worked at.
