Toxic Company

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Free breakfast on Mondays and Fridays

Cons

compartmentalization, non-collaborative, unfriendly, non-team work This company is profitable only by sleazy sales tactics to sell their 1 trick pony product Epik. It is a 4g/5g box that upgrades companies from POTS, and is not very reliable. There is no knowledge base to find any information about our products and supporting them and most people keep their own black book. The different departments do not communicate with each other. As an example you might have 4 or 5 trouble tickets for the same site and same issue as it trickles through the departments. The company does not offer a 401k but a Collective Investment fund which are not SEC regulated or FDIC insured. They do not give you any information on how your money is being invested. The overall environment is toxic and feels like the 13th grade. There is no merit based system on promotion. 1 person became a member of leadership after 3 months starting as a base employee when job openings are not available before 6 months to a year depending on who you talk to. Basically rules are made up as you go along. Skip this company. Totally not worth your time unless you are desperate. How far you succeed in this company is based upon how much the boss likes you not on how well you do.
