      Bad culture/No room for growth

      Pros

      They offer decent pay, schedule flexibility and decent benefits

      Cons

      They require Speed of Trust training which NO ONE in the company uses. I've heard the COO talk about moving up within the company but the Talent Acquisition team will block you if you apply for a position that you don't "qualify" for. Then they hire someone from the outside who will take months to train then they end up leaving because they either hate it here or find a better job somewhere else.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your review. I am the Director of Talent Acquisition. As it relates to internal growth within the company, my team of recruiters will not "block" anyone from applying and interviewing for another position. We do have an obligation to the business and from a legal perspective to ensure that ALL candidates whether internal or external, meet the minimum qualifications of the position. We will often take the extra step to meet with our internal applicants to offer assistance, tools and resources to help them advance if they don't meet the particular qualifications for the position of interest at that time. I would encourage you to meet with me and/or your HR Business Partner to talk about career pathing. Our leaders and Human Resources are focusing on development resources for all employees, which will include career pathing. Not all positions will be a match for an internal applicant and we want to make sure that we set up our employees for success. Here is my contact information: PLEASE schedule some time with me. I'd like to help, but can't do so if I don't know who you are. Christine Blauvelt, 2nd Floor, Troy office, 248.269.6000, Ext. 1754

      Disappointing

      Pros

      Very good benefits package, accrual based PTO, 401K with a decent match and college tuition reimbursement.

      Cons

      Everything else. Employees are over-worked and under-paid, management is disorganized at best, there is no career advancement to the director or executive level from within as they've all been brought in from outside the company or industry. The pay scale is absolutely NOT consistent with the rest of the industry and the company leadership is almost never willing to point the finger at themself.
