Run Away - Fast

Pros

Decent salary. Corporately authorized to work a flexible schedule, but that ability was severely restricted by the local manager.

Cons

Very poor leadership. Passive aggressive leadership style among managers. Very poor direction on how to accomplish the task, then ostracized for doing the task incorrectly. Feedback provided to management but nothing was done. I worked for a manager that talked poorly about everyone, to include my peers, clients and their boss. Terrible leadership created a hostile working environment. Disregard the positive reviews that were likely posted by management. Director not open to hearing feedback.

Worse every year

Pros

None come to mind. Morale sucks

Cons

It’s gotten worse every year since Bain Capital acquired us. They’ve strip away the few perks we had. Salary increases are minimal. For the first time in the company’s history they canceled year end bonuses. Moral couldn’t get any lower. People are jumping ship. I’d rather work anywhere else.
