Seems like an ideal HR opportunity, but...

Human resources employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It's a wonderful company in that it is a thriving business and is doing extremely well financially and will continue to do so.

Cons

In the existence of the HR department, there has not been one VP of HR that has actually had experience in Human Resources. First it was Sales, then Finance, and now IT. The current VP blatantly picks her favorites and promotes and delegates projects to those chosen few, not based on merit, but their commitment to brown-nosing.These opportunities are not made available to the other employees. If you say something regarding this, it has been made quite clear, even stated, that you will be "managed out".

Pros

Working in the LQ division affords the opportunity to network with other accomplished professionals in the healthcare field. I have grown my contacts 100 fold. I can see a pathway upwards, and I get to use my brain every day and set my own schedule. The pay is good and I enjoy my job.

Cons

Inter-departmental communication needs work, but they are implementing things like Salesforce to improve information sharing

Business Outlook

Pros

drivers wanted to do a good job, pay was acceptable, small company atmosphere, senior drivers wanted to lead. Wish I could say more because the potential is there.

Cons

management is weak, too many cliques, poor planning, leads from behind, reactive not proactive in any phase of the operation. Daily conference calls that produced zero results. No single person in charge of the region to make decisions. No input from drivers was recognized.
