-*Company is losing the best people, most of the really great people have moved on, or are actively looking for new jobs. Many were replaced by much younger individuals with less pay.
-Problems with company culture. A couple different women in the office expressed to me how they feel like the company is becoming a "bro culture", and that they no longer fit in.
-The work in my department was very scatterbrained, with leadership seemingly unaware of what goals they wanted to achieve. There is an apparent lack of logic behind why we did the work we did.
-Lots of miscommunication for a communications company, there's some irony there.
-Professional development seems selective. Some people are given the opportunity to expand their skillset, while others are completely neglected.
-The addition of a certain far-right politician to their advisory board raised red flags for many. When asked about this association, the CEO said that cooperation with "both sides" will help Granicus remain politically neutral. He did not acknowledge that this politician in particular is actively working against immigrants and lgbt individuals, of which Granicus employs. If working for a company that serves this agenda might wear on your conscience, I suggest not accepting a position here. If you are a current employee I encourage you to speak up about this association.
-I was repeatedly mislead regarding the direction of my career are Granicus. I am not sure if it was a blatant lie or if it was just a disorganized venture, and I'm not sure which is worse. My advice to a prospective employee is to not be afraid to use this company to advance yourself, because Granicus is not afraid to use you the same way.
