Pros

At first there was a family own company feel and co-workers were willing to help with small tasks and questions.

Cons

They have a high turnover rate and promote employees without providing proper training for the sake of "filling the gap". Employer was not truthful about the turnover rate at the time of hire. They stated 75% of employees have been with the company for more than 10 years. When I was hired, there were many new employees. About 3 women who left within 1 month have been there 8-10+ years. They decided to leave due to the way they felt upper management was not valuing their work and not providing an opportunity for promotion/growth. Employees seemed overworked and constantly playing catch up with the high volume of audits. There was no sustainable practical support for new managers when asked for it. Training provided is little to none and not effective with a high volume of work given, as well as no "trainer position" available. With no system or strong plan for training, new hires are often not able to "catch up" on their work. A person in upper management disempowers potential leaders by their disdainful tone, and at times, their inappropriate language. Many who have left the company did not have a positive experience working with this person.

Pros

Hybrid remote work setting & free food.

Cons

Leadership Has Lost Its Way I am currently employed here, and unfortunately, this has been one of the most disappointing experiences of my career. The biggest issue facing this company is leadership. Many strategic decisions appear to be driven by outside consultants who, from my perspective, lack the institutional knowledge and operational experience needed to effectively guide the business. Despite this, they have been given significant influence over major decisions impacting employees, customers, and long-term company direction. Since these consultants became heavily involved, the company has experienced repeated restructuring, layoffs, benefit reductions, and constant shifts in priorities. Rather than solving problems, many of their recommendations seem to create additional layers of confusion and instability. Employees are frequently asked to abandon one initiative and move to the next before seeing results from the previous one. Equally concerning is the lack of confidence many employees have in senior leadership. Transparency, accountability, and consistency often feel absent from decision-making. Leaders regularly change direction, reorganize teams, and introduce new strategies without clearly communicating the rationale behind them. What makes this particularly frustrating is that the company was built on strong client relationships, industry expertise, and a people-first culture. Today, that foundation appears to be eroding under leadership decisions that prioritize short-term metrics over long-term success. There are talented employees throughout the organization who genuinely care about the company’s future. Unfortunately, until leadership demonstrates greater accountability and relies more on qualified internal expertise, it will be difficult for the company to regain its footing.
