An embarrassment...

Pros

Unfortunately there are none. Unless you count learning what not to do.

Cons

The place is an absolute nightmare. There is absolutely zero process or organization. There are mistakes made on everything as a result. It takes about a week to make the simplest of changes. Clients are always unhappy and it is embarrassing. Management does not try to fix the process or prevent errors from happening, instead they place blame, get someone in trouble, and move on. You are yelled at or looked at weird if you try and suggest ways to improve the process. It is a very backwards work environment. The worst employees (liars, lazy, incompetent, slow) are treated like rock stars and the employees who work the hardest are treated the worst. Senior management is atrocious and the worst part of the company. A group of kids playing dress up. They provide absolutely zero mentoring and there is not one person to look up to. They manage using fear and threats. HR and the President encourage this behavior so don’t bother looking to anyone for help. Managers lie about their direct reports and verbally abuse them on a daily basis. Senior management encourages this type of bullying as well. Lastly, there is absolutely zero work/life balance. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. You are scolded if you put in anything less than 60 hours a week. Most people are stuck at the office until midnight or later on a daily basis, not just once in a while. You will be expected to work like a slave and you will not get any recognition for it either.

A sad charade

Pros

Some of the people who work here are worth their weight in gold.

Cons

Culture Management was focused on growing the company but had no interest in acknowledging the serious process and employee training issues that caused multiple problems EVERY DAY. Department heads or staff speaking up about issues they were having were identified as problems. Employee morale declined, frustration and resentment built as issues would linger and fester and never truly be resolved. Training Employee training and competence would vary wildly from department to department and lead to projects going in circles unnecessarily. Some departmental managers would not even train new hires on process or software but there never seemed to be any consequences for this behavior, so the same type of problems happened over and over again. Internal communications Leadership failed in communicating the vision and expectations of this company. A monthly meeting, Powerpoint deck or email diatribes do not constitute managing and leading employees through change. Employees who will excel Liars and incompetents who can master the art of artifice and superficiality are made for this environment and will flourish. If you are someone who cares about the work you produce, respecting your coworkers and keeping your integrity, your soul will slowly rot away, leaving a black empty hole that no amount of free booze and snacks will fill.

Pros

Absolutely nothing unless you love dealing with nepotism, favoritism, racism, bullying, sub-zero IQ management with no skills.

Cons

Horrible environment. Production department suffers highest turnover while management suffers zero turnover. That says it all since management does literally nothing but leave early and contribute nothing but make stupid, pointless speeches just to meet their monthly quota of uselessness. Management insulates themselves with their personal friends to protect them from taking any blame for their lack of responsibility and leadership skills. The company will ensure that their friends can do anything they want because they will ALWAYS pass the blame onto production people. Management stupidly believes that no one knows about their failed backgrounds. Management wave their worthless personal awards around when the staff is well aware that they self nominated themselves for the awards since no one else (including their own family) would ever nominate them. The fact that people are quitting in droves and that management keeps stupidly sending a monthly poll asking how happy people are at work just shows how out of touch this management team is. Obviously, people are quitting because the company is a joke. They see through the phony facade that management portrays. Keep defending your fellow clowns and the mass exodus will continue. If you want to know about the true "success" of precisioneffect's management team, just look up the failed status of the agency IgniteHealth which these clowns once ran. That's all you need to know. If you're considering this company for agency work, I strongly recommend against it. You will regret meeting these professional idiots. Your IQ will drop 100 points just by listening to their mindless drivel.
