Great Company, Toxic Management for Frisco Marketing

Marketing proposal coordinator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Lot of room for creativity Other departments were great to work with New building Coffee machine

Cons

Not sure if the culture of the Frisco proposals team has changed since my time at CORE but the proposal department leadership at the time was very toxic - expected to work late into the night in office printing proposals, gaslighting manager called me dumb one day then would take me out to lunch the next day, etc. hot and cold mean girl energy from management. Was an unfortunate situation because the company outside of the matketing department was amazing and I had zero issues. If you are interviewing with them drill them on what work life balance is, and ask them what training looks like - I also remember I was not trained appropriately then disciplined for not knowing how to do certain things that I should have been trained on.
