Pros

-Very small company = a lot of visibility with upper management -No micro-managing, you are accountable for your work -Decent office space

Cons

For young/entry level professionals, unless you you want to specialize in e-procurement, I do not recommend this company. -Sure you get visibility, but you're definitely not learning or benefitting much from this. There are no resources to teach lower/entry level employees industry best-practices, etc. You are in an "ESM" bubble. -Pay is horrible. Not sure if it has changed since, but we were getting paid ONCE a month when I worked there. -A lot of weird things go on with upper management. Many top execs (including CEO) were fired, rumors of mergers that never happen. -Not sure what the other reviews are talking about, but there were definitely not "team-building" events -Also don't agree with the "opportunities for growth" in the other reviews. Maybe you'll get a raise or a new project to work on but it won't mean much to other companies when you're applying. It seems odd that the only other reviews on here are all within the same couple days and say the same thing. I would be wary of accepting a position here, as I have heard the company has only gotten more volatile in recent months.

Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your candor to help us continue to shape the company and culture based on your time with us. One of the most important changes we have made this past year has in fact been the growth for our younger employees as you stated in your advice.

Pros

Initially, the pros were great leadership and small company atmosphere, but that all changed when the Founder and CEO was undermined and betrayed, and fired by the Board.

Cons

- Poor leadership from new management - Not up to par with salaries - One of the CEOs is very untrustworthy - Shaky technology

Good People and Good Management

Pros

Good management team. Progressive attempt to manage people and projects. Good for entry level candidates to learn the business world and work their way up

Cons

Lack of training makes work frustrating which may lead to the very high turnover. Very little input accepted from "middle" management, leads to more frustration. More reactive than proactive to problems and solutions. Prevent the business from taking the next leap which they have the talent to do.
