Risk intelligence manager

Business Outlook

Pros

The pay and family benefits are good. It's a great culture if you're hungry and competent.

Cons

The CEO and senior C Suite and very tenured and competent and drive almost everything. However, they tend to overrule/overpower middle and even senior management. Middle management is weak as a result: avoiding collaboration and highly resistant to following protocol. This leads to an environment which is highly reliant on the tribal knowledge of senior leaders and one where BUs compete with one another over scope and resources. Programs are often fragmented, as result, leading to many information siloes. Those needing structure and direction often flounder. These are cultural artefacts of Generation X: the strong survive.

Business Outlook

Pros

Founder led company with real concern and care for employees. We've never had a real layoff in the 20 years I have been with the company. Jensen is visionary leader. Management has been very supportive of my personal career growth and work flexibility. Job is never dull, always new challenges.

Cons

Recently in past several years it seems that internal candidates are overlooked for growth opportunities and we tend to hire external candidates instead. Management (Finance) is not very transparent with organizational changes. It feels pace of company growth is outpacing our ability to develop sound process and infrastructure and hire personnel to support and it feels frenetic at times.
