Morale is low, but that's more of a symptom of other issues. There is a lack of focus, a steady stream of new leadership that comes and goes, instability in the technology, and no cohesive vision or strategy. There also seems to be very little accountability, and if things go wrong, often times someone on the client-facing side of the business seems to get thrown under the bus. The private equity firm that bought FADV is more concerned about how the company looks on paper, as expected. The longevity of the company is questionable. Although FADV claims to be the largest global background screening company, have the largest global footprint, etc., bigger is not necessarily better. Other companies have thought they were too big to fail with disastrous outcomes.
