Pros

I've worked at precisioneffect for 3 years. It's a very welcoming and encouraging environment. The management team has an open door policy and they're the most approachable upper management I've ever worked for. They take criticism to heart and do their best to solve for it. The President and Chief Creative Officer are two of the best people you'll ever meet in your lifetime. Extremely successful, passionate, down to earth and a great team. If you're a dedicated, hard worker, you'll thrive here. If you're looking to grow in your career, you've found the right place. They really value hard work and there's always something new to learn. If you're looking for somewhere you can get by by doing the bare minimum, I highly suggest looking elsewhere but if you love what you do and want to be as successful as you can be, this is the place for you! Co-workers are also amazing. Funny, down to earth and brilliant people! It's truly a collaborative environment.

Cons

It's a fairly new company that has experienced some growing pains, but we've worked through it. As we continue to grow, I'm sure we'll experience it again but that's the beauty of this place - it's not boring and the management team really relies on the entire company to work together and problem solve as a team. I'd say they're really good at turning cons into pros.

Pros

None. They even took the snacks away. Which is good because everyone puts on weight when they start working here because they’re stress eating all the time. Not because it’s a busy productive place to work but because they’re so miserable.

Cons

Old style thinking about EVERYTHING. Their employee bios are cringe worthy—the women are described by how they handle kids, hairstyle, high heels, and work, while guys are the seasoned pros. It’s pathetic. Management is THE WORST—unimaginative, cliquish, hostile, retaliatory. No mentoring from middle management so younger employees learn nothing and their ideas go nowhere, no appreciation for the experience and contribution from the older workers so they lose interest. The whole place is an exercise in vanity for a few of the most senior management. I wasn’t willing to waste my expertise on this place.

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.
