Small company, big ideas - Anonymous employee Coop Systems Employee Review

The company values diversity of thought and demographics and encourages innovation at every level.You are given full control on your task. managers believe the strength of the employee.

Can be stressful, work life balance can be a challenge.

The staff at Coop Systems is relatively friendly. Management occasionally stocked the kitchen with junk food and soda.

The fundamental problem with the product the company is selling itself is that it is based on a free version of Microsoft SharePoint, no longer supported by Microsoft and no where near as useful as more recent versions of SharePoint have proven in the development of business continuity management (BCM) solutions There is no transparency in accounting coupled with non-standard billing practices. Company income currently dependent on projects that are stalled, forcing staff layoffs. No standard BCM Product, leading to frequent undocumented custom work. No good future long term sales prospects. No development staff, only one lead developer. No road map for implementing features promised to clients in the previous year. Bugs in software leading to issues with existing clients implementations. Clients engaging in legal action against the company for unfinished or poorly implemented work. There is a customer support staff of only two individuals. Two overworked project leads focusing primarily on one major project as other are given little to no attention. All this as animosity towards the company builds and awareness of its incompetence in developing BCM solutions becomes clearer.
