Pros

401k match, relaxed dress code, decent salary, travel opportunity, flexibility in working hours, free lunches, flat organization, good location, fun environment.

Cons

Sales floor is like a daycare. Money is wasted on unnecessary job roles and positions. People will now be screwed out of 25% of their yearly bonus due to things they can't control (EBITDA bonus which doesn't affect the employees who spend the most). So much time is wasted on leadership training and kool-aid drinking. CEO and VPs have no idea what anyone does outside of sales.

Dear Colleague - thanks for taking the time to provide feedback here and I am sorry that you feel the business is not delivering through its values. I would be interested to hear more on your views as to what you feel is unecessary and how our efficiency can be improved - where you think we are spending poorly. Being vocal about this type of challenge is exactly one of the way you personally can have a positive impact on EBITDA and help your Sub / function achieve and ultimately over achieve in this area. Please feel free to connect to me directly via email for a confidential discussion at any time and thanks again for your commitment to the business. John Mayes, Global HR Director.
