Atlanta Office

Supply chain

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Relaxed work atmosphere, friendly work environment

Cons

Nepotism in the Atlanta office is rampant. If you are related to a longtime employee then you will be given preference during hiring, promotions, and protection from lay-offs. Neighbors, friends, and family members of longtime employees (including those of the Atlanta CEO) with zero to little job skills are hired over those with very strong backgrounds, relevant skills, and US citizenship. Senior management is not very transparent with regards to future directions of the business. The common theme by management is place the blame on being kept in the dark by HQ in Germany.

No compensation for extra effort.

Anonymous employee

Pros

Its great to be able to challenge yourself and watch your ideas come to life.

Cons

No compensation for additional work. Pay is based off of 50 hours, not 40 like they will tell you in the interview. Teamwork is not driven from the top. Never ending push. There is no time to reflect on anything that was done and no time to make improvements. Not much of a formal review process and what we do have we only get once a year. Its treated as more of an inconvenience. I never know outside of my own self review how well im doing or what I need to focus on to improve.
