Pros

My best team collaborative experience has been at Karmak. Co-workers have such a great attitude about trying to do whatever they can to help you. The company has some processes in place to give people recognition for outstanding achievement.

Cons

HR admits that competitive pay isn't important to them.

No Credible Leadership

Pros

The benefits are good, paid vacation, paid personal days and sick days. Health insurance, dental insurance, and vision insurance. Overall great co-workers that care about what they do. Flexible schedule in certain departments. Casual environment. Frequent office events and the workers feel like family at times. Dress code is relaxed. Wellness benefits - Partial fitness dues reimbursement and once a week exercise program during work hours.

Cons

There is no credible leadership. Most have their own personal agenda and expect you to follow true to it. If you don't, your gone. They say the customer experience is most important. They hide behind skewed support numbers to show customer service as better than it really is. CEO and President has no integrity or morals. His word means nothing. C-level doesn't care what your ethics are, professional or private. Real bonus if you're promiscuous. Software is second rate at best due to rushed design, development and deployment with little or no testing. The real customer experiences on new products are hidden and credited to the fault of the customer. The customers are said to be the priority but they are not. If you can adapt your business practices to their product "experts" designs you will do well. They are out-of-touch with the industry. The buddy system and nepotism is most prevalent in upward mobility. The lack of leadership in most of the key leadership positions is prevalent. The bottom line far outweighs employee loyalty and sacrifice. Trial-by-fire is the preferred employment development process. They lack defined and standard processes in every area of the company. Instead of setting the proper foundation and building from there, change on-the-fly is the prescribed approach to defining processes.

Cons

Compensation is generally below industry standards and burdens are placed on employees to perform multiple duties with no additional compensation consideration. The term used most often is overworked and underpaid. True and consistent. The CEO and President has no integrity or morals. His word means nothing. C-level doesn't care about your ethics, professional or private. It is a real bonus if you're promiscuous. The company has a below average software package that has been rushed to market virtually untested. The lack of quality and forethought in new products has shown in customer dissatisfaction. They hide behind skewed support numbers that show customer service to be much better than it really is. The lack of solid processes and leadership at key levels shows in a product that is touted to be more than it really is. If you are a "Yes" man or woman you fit in well. Buddy system is in place for upward mobility. As a result you have people designing software and making key business decisions that make a bad software package even worse.
