Pros

Feedback specific to Ringtail team at FTI. Solid established software with the best analytics and visualizations in the eDiscovery space. Many long time devoted knowledgeable people in delivery roles.

Cons

New leadership since 2017 does not have a strategy for the business other than chasing large, hard-to-get deals. New leadership of the Ringtail group at FTI has a Trumpian temperament, lacks self awareness and favors people he likes and knows over experience and talent. Senior leaders doing software demos and answering RFP responses rather than delegating so they can set a legitimate strategy. FTI Technology segment seems more committed and seeing more profitability in Relativity hosting. Unclear if they have a long term commitment to Ringtail or plan to divest.

Pros

* Strong brand recognition and an impressive roster of clients and projects. * Opportunity to work with talented colleagues across multiple business segments. * Exposure to a fast-paced environment that provides significant professional growth and learning opportunities.

Cons

* Lack of consistent leadership visibility and clear strategic direction across parts of the organization. * Communication from senior leadership can be limited, leaving employees without a clear understanding of priorities and long-term goals. * Decision-making often feels reactive rather than proactive. * Accountability and partnership are inconsistent across teams and business segments. * Employees may not always feel adequately supported when raising concerns or navigating challenging situations. * Leadership teams are often stretched thin, which can impact coaching, communication, and overall employee support. * Performance evaluation and promotion processes can lack transparency, making it difficult to understand how decisions are made. * Employee experiences can vary significantly depending on team, manager, and business segment. * Opportunities for feedback exist, but employees do not always see meaningful action taken in response to recurring concerns. * Collaboration and cross-functional alignment can be challenging at times due to differing priorities and expectations.
