Cons
This company USED to be a great place to work up until a couple of years ago when new management was installed in finance. At that point, unbeknownst to the current managers, their departments were usurped, and positions were 'eliminated' meaning employees were let go and their positions filled with less paid employees who would not question the new hierarchy. Some managers who had been with the company for years were given 'special projects' to do once control of their departments were gone. Eventually they were let go as well, or they left because they saw the writing on the wall. Department mergers and employee eliminations have continued since then driven by greed, the goal of providing upper management with bonus money, and to 'streamline' departments. Now, let's be clear. Streamlining to the common person would be to reduce steps to a process to increase efficiency. At Star2Star, streamlining means to eliminate positions, not steps, merge departments, which has resulted in a severe bottlenecking of work. Due to lack of proper training, and oversight by managers that don't have the foggiest clue on how the processes should flow, work is backing up, and the seasoned employees that are left are leaving. Due to all these changes, and the day-to-day threat of losing your job, many of the employees that are left are leaving for other opportunities. This has created a void in knowledge, experience, and personnel needed to get the work done. Bravo management! Star2Star does not conduct background checks (costs money), does not conduct drug screenings (costs money), and they do not give reviews or raises. People have been there longer than two years without a raise despite learning the responsibilities of more than one department. The excuse? The new regime, made up solely by numbers people, have concocted reports that skew the actual work flow so they can justify not handing out raises. I could not with good intentions recommend this company for employment. The only way I would is: 1.) You are new to the area and need a job quickly -congrats, you're hired! 2.) You're fresh out of high school or college and are looking for office experience. You will definitely learn how to spot and identify what an unscrupulous company looks like by working here.
