Pros

-Technology is revolutionary for the verticals targeted. Huge potential. -Most co-workers were cool. -My individual manager was awesome. -I was able to find a work/life balance, but only because my direct manager really "got it." -Excellent professional training ground (bc you learn what not to do).

Cons

-Low morale -40%+ of company let go in one day. It was a bloodbath. -Top level management doesn't understand how to ACTUALLY implement tech and train a client. As in, what exact buttons does a client push and how is that information presented. Nuts and bolts stuff. -Administrative tasks that are more efficiently handled centralized constantly pushed onto field teams. In fairness, they fired all the field teams, so I guess that problem is gone. -Top down decision making. -WAY TOO MUCH EGO FROM THE TOP. -Didn't seem like anyone wanted to look at data to make the right (again, nuts and bolts) decisions re: revenue/profit & client experience. -Mediocre pay with no clear avenues for growth. -Health insurance wasn't great.

Pros

-Beautiful new office space in The Loop -Staff outings -Casual office dress code -Nice perks like a coffee bar and free lunches during staff meetings -Unlimited PTO -Young staff you would typically find in start up environments - opportunities to make friends

Cons

-Low pay -Company wide layoff two weeks before Christmas destroyed office culture and morale -There are seemingly little opportunities of career path or growth since reorganizing the company into new buckets -The reorg seemed rushed, there has been little direction of the company outside of people who were kept on board falling back into old (bad) habits -Lack of training when being hired. New hires seem to be lost and frustrated -The company as a whole has a very defensive mindset; everyone is fearful of criticism and are constantly looking to place blame outside of themselves. This makes collaboration a challenge, and change reluctant/nonexistent -Asking for additional resources will be like pulling teeth -The tech is glitchy. Updates and bug fixes are slow. Adding additional features is slow. There are well known workarounds to perform job functions -Senior management are able to pitch "big picture" but have little understanding or knowledge on the day to day operations -At its core, this is a temporary staffing agency, not a technology platform
