Old Boys Network Business , your either in or your going to be out real soon

Business Outlook

Pros

Great Downtown SF location, professional business environment, decent pay

Cons

This is a very old private company that does not have stock holders to pressure change or improvement, the turnover is around 10%+ a year at the HQ because of poor leadership based on personal old boy network relationships( not skilled or qualified), Unless you are connected to leadership , you have no oppratunity and will be part of the " Survivor Island" process of an extremely negative political environment where people are fired all the time

Pros

Admirable core values for the company, such as accountability.

Cons

Core values are good on paper, but management does not uphold them. Management wants employees that simply follows orders. So is a great place to work for those that like to be told what to do and have no freedom of thought.
