      Chaotic mismanaged environment

      Pros

      Excellent CRM company - I was so excited to be part of this amazing company.....then they had a reorg - then another - and on and on and on!!!

      Cons

      If you’re lucky enough to get with a good manager it’s awesome- but don’t get settled in because they reorg every year. There is no change management policy and people are just shuffled around with no consideration for career paths. My manager has zero leadership skills. 1/1s are cancelled often and experienced individuals on the team are underutilized. Lots of wasted time on developing processes that are never implemented. - this company operates as a startup! There are a lot of talented people here that will leave because their managers are stifling their growth and creativity and not allowing employees to use their skills. Very sad!

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      + Visionary CEO + Philanthropic bent + Good pay and work/life balance + Exciting company (at least from the outside)

      Cons

      - Chaotic environment where leaders are continuously changing direction - Siloed teams with limited opportunities to learn and grow - Poor leaders (many who do not have the maturity for the positions they hold) - Very little emphasis on developing the team. Every boss is busy managing up. - Lots of average people - TONS of politics

      Great company with some terrible senior leaders

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Company values and commitment to giving back to the community. There are many well-meaning and passionate leaders who support and enable a corporate positive and enlightened corporate culture. There are several departments that truly embody the wonderful aspects of the company, collaboration, work/life balance, philanthropy, employee development, and innovation. The company has a good perspective on reasonable employee amenities, providing a good work environment without creating an entitled workforce. The benefits and compensation are average for the industry.

      Cons

      Bad managers thrive creating terrible and deep differences between departments and culture. Extremely difficult for an employee to seek help or remediation from bad situations - "star" executives trump any negativity surrounding them. No performance management process which leads to discretionary and highly subjective annual reward and comp process. No long term plan and huge disconnects between finance, real estate, and business groups. Rapid employee growth without thought leading to high OpEx and zero profit.
