Stuck in 1985 - Marketing Team CCA Global Partners Employee Review

Unfortunately, I have to say the cons outweigh the pros, especially considering future growth. Marketing is the fastest-growing department at CCA it seems, but even so, your growth isn't guaranteed. There's no real process for promotion, and negotiating only occurs at your annual review in October, with NO exceptions. I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH: The company NEEDS to get progressive. CCA strives to position itself as a progressive company, especially in the interview process. The moment you start, however, you realize this is not the case. You have to fight the company to offer you a laptop, even if you're working remotely. They rely on an outdated messaging system, outdated VPN, and clunky desktop setup over laptops for all. From a cultural standpoint, you will feel like you've stepped into a time machine if you're under 30. No outward efforts to care for true social justice causes, ideals, or that of a modern workforce. No efforts to show that we care about women's causes, LGBTQ+ causes, or those for people of color and sustainability. We preach inclusivity but are white-washed and pander to an anti-vax, anti-mask, hard-right base of members in the co-op. It was a fight just to get CCA to cancel the convention during the height of the January 2022 omicron spike. And dare I bring up the keynote speaker that mocked higher education during the July 2021 Convention? Outdated expectations of girls wearing 1970s flight attendant scarves while the boys wear starchy, oversized polos at Convention? This has to stop. Benefits: They offer healthcare, gym reimbursement, and 2 weeks of PTO. That's pretty much it. 2 weeks of vacation in 2022 is absolute insanity. Most companies now offer 4 weeks, 5 weeks, or unlimited PTO and sick time, given all that we've learned about work-life balance during the pandemic. Aetna insurance isn't bad, but coverage is spotty. Only 7 holidays and 2 floating personal days until your 3rd year on the job. This will not attract your best talent given how competitive the workforce is.
