      Poor Choice of a company for a career

      Accountant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      None that I can think of...

      Cons

      There are a lot of consultants that work here- that immediately tells you that something is wrong. Also, there are a lot of people there with the title "Director of..." Why does everyone have to be a director but there seems to be no reference for vital information to solve problems? There is a lot of posting of jobs but no one is "a great candidate" internally....which is partially due to nepotism and control coming from management. They pick who they want. There is also a lot of micromanaging in the Accounting department. There are a few managers in the Accounting department that even have degrees but seem to always get promotions and review staff's work. The Accounting department also has a lot of broken processes such as rent being deposited into wrong accounts and mapping errors that seems to never fade away. Working in this department adds no prestige to your skillset as all you do are bank recons throughout the month. Finally, don't ever try to reason with HR concerning your issues that you have. It will result in you loosing your job.....trust me as I know!!!

      No long term career growth

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Every employee is eligible for bonus

      Cons

      Equity owner and management goals does not align. Too many incompetent upper management and company is pretty much ran by consultants and equity owner. Constant changes... changes before original change has been fully executed. Promotion and raises are not about performance but who you get along with. Impossible ask with limited resources, lack communication, operates like mom and pop, no control, consultants and contractors hold many top critical positions.

      Pros

      -Really nice community events -Free coffee -An elevator

      Cons

      -Imagine working for a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off and every chicken thinks they have the answer to every solution. -Lack of communication leads to constant double work throughout each month. People literally stay late everyday working on these projects.

And with any company that is growing rapidly, a fast paced work environment comes with it. We understand that it may not be for everyone and I am sorry you feel the way you feel as a result of this. We do try to hire the best of the best for the jobs we have in order to keep the level of growth organized. It is a vital piece of our success.
