Working Human Doesn't Exist

Pros

The people that work here a genuinely good people. Many, care about other people beyond the work place. Free food that masks the lack of annual raises and promotions. New office space is nice but is open concept.

Cons

Favoritism runs deep. Certain people barely show up for work while others are basically driving the business alone. The social recognition platform is also perpetuated by favoritism. The loudest person in the room gets the award, not the hardest worker. Globoforce thinks it's a big fish in a big pond when it's a tiny fish in a puddle. Hypocrisy and sexism is rampant. There are 0 women in the C-suite. Limited promotions going to women and very few minorities in the company. Managers are not equipped, trained, or experienced enough to be managers. People are not willing to work collaboratively, many are trained to not share information with others. Some managers manage a large amount of staff remotely; they don't see the big picture of what exactly is going on in the office. The company constantly is reactive instead of proactive - upper management and executive leaders never say no to any prospective customer or active client at the expense of everyone else in the organization.

Could be an incredible place

Pros

Colleague support is phenomenal, good benefits, bright yet calming and collaborative workspace, great work/life balance

Cons

The company has so many leaders in so many parts of the organization from the top all the way to the first level of managers that are not people managers and are not being properly trained to be people managers. For a place that prides itself on working human, it's quite the contradiction. There is then lack of trust and respect for leadership. It makes the day to day more difficult to put up with. It's really sad to see as it could be an extraordinary company.
