Cheetahmail's demise.

Pros

There were quite a few.. Most died off paying for unnecessary Sr.Directors positions or their mistakes.

Cons

Come one come all !!! Need a lay over period for your financial job ? No problem Cheetahmail does that. Are unskilled and want to be overpaid ? Yup.. Cheetahmail is the place. Have a Director "friend" in Cheetahmail and have janitorial skills ? You got it. A Sr.Director position is waiting for you. Are from a certain unskilled financial ethnic group ? Oh.. you must have missed the boat.. all of them already work here. No worries.. Cheetahmail will accomodate you even if there was no need for your position. Are a Director type and need few new buzz words on your resume ? No problem.. No matter what stupid decisions you make, you'll alway come out a winner. But most important.. If you ever want to learn how to ruin one of the better companies that I worked for, stop by anytime. For a month, 3 months or even half a year. Regards

Great company, low job security

Pros

Leadership, compensation, work-life balance. Very laid back and professional work environment. Able to work remotely or in-office, no set work hours. Do your job well and enjoy the perks.

Cons

No real job security. I was excited at the prospect of growing with this company, but was laid off after 4 months of employment due to structural changes within the company, which took place just 2 weeks after I was hired. I didn't see it coming until the actual moment of the lay-off, as we were assured our jobs would not be at jeopardy.

Too much change

Pros

Great colleagues, excellent pay and benefits. Most of the time, the work is quite interesting.

Cons

Too much change over the last year. During the recession there were lots of lay-offs and virtually no positions have been refilled. This has led to burnout amongst too many good people. While the work is rewarding and the people are great, the consistent demand to do more with less is going to drive people to leave now that the job market is better.
