Business Outlook
Pros
Quick pace, lots of opportunities to learn, interesting clients, wonderful colleagues.
Cons
No longer true to its declared culture: 1. We do what's right for the client 2. We do what's right for the employee 3. If 1 and 2, then SmithBucklin thrives. Problem is that CEO and other top management focused on maximizing (employee-owned) share value to cash out in May 2015: company is maximizing work output with reduced teams, resulting in burnouts, terminations and short-cuts.
