Pros

Free cereal, biscuits, bread, coffee, tea. Beer on Friday. Good location. Nice people. Growing business.

Cons

Lack of career progression / career development. Too much external hiring with no interest in training and developing current employees to move into more senior roles. Leadership issues and poor management. Don't focus on doing a good job if you do want one of the rare promotion opportunities that aren't advertised externally, just get on well with the current management. No clear lines of communication between departments and a general lack of communication. No interest in employee feedback.

Thank you for your candid feedback. Our aim is certainly not to hire external and forget about our team and if we have faltered in this regard, we will hold ourself accountable with a view to making positive change. The aim is to make sure we focus on the growth of our people internally but have this happen in parallel to growing and scaling the org. No small task, i'm sure you would agree. We are always open to discussion with our team on how we can make this happen more effectively. We are realistic in that we are very good at being the size we have been but we have never been the size we are going to be and so it is a journey we are on as a team together, navigating scaling challenges whilst trying to make sure our people feel like they are SiteMinder.

Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience. Would love to learn more about what scalable SOP's you think would work well in SiteMinder org context and open this up for discussion. Also keen learn a little more about what perks of training tools/opportunities you would like to see outside of the internal trainings?

Pros

- Office location is at the rocks area, - There used to be a lot of great tech guys in the company who are very cool to work with. - Free breakfast, fruits, cookies.

Cons

I agree from the previous review that there is a real good reason why this company keeps on hiring. Good employees have been leaving one by one yet the company is not doing anything about it. Instead, they keep on posting new job ads and blindly believes they can hire better people. Blaming culture is rampant in the company. You do not get credit for all the right things you've been doing but spotlight immediately goes to you when you do something wrong. Teamwork is not applicable when something goes wrong and people are great at pointing fingers instead of helping each other.
