Ascendco Reviews

The biggest challenge that Ascendco faces as a business is that they have a severe culture problem. This culture problem extends from the top down and the “review” from 4/19/2024 from one of the most tenured employees at the company is a perfect example of the culture here. Ascendco has a very difficult time retaining people, and instead of looking inward and trying to understand why there is such high turnover (especially in their Chicago office), they outcast those individuals and label them as “losers” or “haters,” pointing the finger elsewhere without taking any accountability. I can say with almost complete certainty that all of these “losers that are sad” have never been happier since moving on from this company and the toxic environment it creates. Consider other options, or at least do yourself a favor and reach out any of the many past employees of this company you can find on LinkedIn to learn more about their experience. P.S. In case the 4/19/2024 post gets removed for whatever reason, see below for what one of the most tenured employees’ advice to management was regarding their former colleagues: "Ignore the haters, they are just losers that are sad they couldn't meet the bar of being the best.”

- No accountability for leadership whatsoever. For a company that values the, “Human Touch”, they surely do not hold up to the standard. From forcing employees to work weekends, to changing business objectives without letting necessary parties know, leadership continues to blame its people rather than empower them. - Not the right leaders to accurately build a sustainable and great product, team, and overall business. - Toxic work environment, long hours, inaccurate onboarding, and long travel weeks. - Terrible opportunities to grow yourself and your career.
