Poor Executive Management

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Most peers are excellent and care about succeeding. Flexible schedule and ability to work on different projects

Cons

Executive team is very disconnected from the company. They wonder why they do not have a silicon valley start up feel and it is because they never talk to the people doing the work and ask for any input. There is not much opportunity for advancement either.

High expectations with poor benefits and low pay.

Pros

Technology is interesting and coworkers are great to work with.

Cons

Management is weak. Executive management even weaker with little connection to the worker bees. Expectations are very high but compensation is low and benefits extremely poor. No real incentives, no opportunities to move up and on, no guidance or even input from management with regards to career path. No training and don't always have what one needs to do the job. No choices either. Sad, what used to be a fairly decent company has really abandoned its employees with the attitude 'don't like get out'.
