Pros

There are some good employees left to pick up the pieces

Cons

I don't even know where to start with my experience at Marketron. This company has turned into a prime example of how NOT to run a business. To say that Marketron's CEO and executive team have run the company into the ground would be an understatement. The level of incompetence and deception I've witnessed during my time here is truly astounding. The executive team at Marketron has consistently made disastrous decisions that played a significant role in the company's downfall. Their choices were marked by a stunning lack of transparency, leading to an environment of confusion and frustration among employees. The most egregious aspect of Marketron's operations is the blatant dishonesty when dealing with clients, both during the pre-sales and post-sales phases. The software they offer is riddled with bugs and inefficiencies, yet the sales team painted a picture of a seamless and efficient solution that rarely, if ever, failed. This misleading information is not only unfair to clients but also puts immense pressure on the development and support teams to keep up the façade. Over the course of just one year, Marketron initiated two brutal rounds of layoffs, leaving over 65 dedicated employees without a job. Many of these layoffs could have been avoided if the executive team had taken responsible measures to prevent the company's downward spiral. In a desperate attempt to save face, the CEO stepped down from their role, but don't be fooled - it is merely a way for him to maintain influence by taking a seat on the board. This move was nothing short of a cynical attempt to hold onto power and avoid taking accountability for their role in the company's demise. In summary, I would strongly caution anyone considering employment or business relations with Marketron to think twice. This is a company that has lost its way, and it's unlikely to find its footing anytime soon.

Pros

recruited from a good job to work for more money and a "great" company that was the leader in broadcasting technology. After successfully bringing multiple clients onboard, getting thanks and cudos from the owner and many atta-boy emails, I was laid off with no warning because of 'budget cuts". Reduction, twice in the same year. never again

Cons

managers nice, good benefits, k
