Disappointingly Homogenous

Pros

I was able to make and save a good amount of money Fantastic benefits I will miss I was able to learn something new everyday and got a lot of technical training I felt like my direct manager was attentive and willing to help me succeed

Cons

Weak leadership at the very top I found this company to be homogenous in gender, race, religion, and thought. This is not a blind spot - I went to the board to let them know I think it is an issue and that it is something only company leadership can solve, but that I was willing to help them work on a solution. I left the meeting extremely disappointed with their lack of acknowledgement and action, and nothing was done. The 'culture' in my experience on the sales team is white, christian, male and conservative and it took a lot of energy for me to be there. I also found the drinking culture to be a known issue here that for some reason can't be fixed? In my time there, there was not a sales meeting without leadership and most of the almost all male team getting wasted and forcing you to stay out and watch them cary on late into the night.

OK Benefits, Arrogant Management

Pros

Wonderful people, a pleasure to work with many

Cons

The CEO loves to talk about humility, but doesn't understand the definition of the word. The book he read over the weekend is his current passion and the management plan of the week. This will somehow make him, and the rest of his team, more expert than anyone in the company, even those with a decade or more of personal experience. Those who question, end up in dead ends. Promotions are by edict. In 10 years I never saw a single internal job posting. I did see dozens of "yes" people promoted, often beyond their skill sets.
