Corporate Officers are ruining the company

Senior analyst

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Most employees are really good to work with and work for.

Cons

The CEO is completely lost... He hires VPs, fires VPs, promotes directors, fires directors. He has no idea what is actually happening in the company. He is such a bad boss that people end up telling him what he wants to hear instead of what the reality is. He is ruining the company. The second person that is ruining the company's culture and values is Tom Peitler, the CTO.

Pros

Benefits were good. Professional development was encouraged but when you did try to take advantage of it and/or try to suggest changes or updates from what you learned, it wasn't taken into consideration.

Cons

Slow to change things Nepotism was rampant No professional growth unless you had prior military experience or connections to military or gov't. There was a revolving door of people quitting every few months but management would have you believe it was on par with the national average of employee retention rate. Whatever bonuses/awards that were given out to employees who exemplified CALIBRE's core values and mission were given to upper management. I don't doubt that certain ones in leadership were working hard but it does nothing for morale when the SAME directors and managers are getting these awards each year. Definitely was a good ole boy network. Accounting department needs to be completely overhauled.
