Pros

Cardinal Group's culture and core values are really well put together, and I still hold some of them to this day, despite no longer being employed with them. They host many fun team building events, and the on-site perks for team members are wonderful. The team when I was working was a group of fun people, who were reasonable and innovative.

Cons

The C-Level management and President are often unreasonable with the expectations of their team. Despite having been praised for my experience and ability to adapt, suggestions for best practices were ignored, which later resulted in a drastic loss of productivity. In addition, the compensation for the position was low, and pay increases were few and far between. As the company grows, and additional resources are required to continue to meet those expectations, you're met with pushback in the form of a Core Value: Do More with Less. In that case, it meant growing expectations, a decreasing team size, and multiple conversations with the President about being disappointed in your performance, despite an ever-growing workload and no help in sight. Being a travelling team member can be difficult at times. Occasionally team members would be put up in dorm rooms with a suggestion to pack bedding.

Pros

This company is deeply committed to its culture and consistently lives out its core values. It is a truly inclusive environment that embraces an entrepreneurial spirit—a rare find in today's market. If you are looking for a career defined by growth and genuine opportunity, I highly recommend joining this team.

Cons

No company will check every single box, but it’s ultimately about finding alignment between what you're looking for and what you contribute. At this company, you truly get back everything you put into it; it’s a place that rewards initiative and rewards those who are ready to dive in.

Pros

- Room for growth and promotions - Job security - Most of your coworkers are easy to work with

Cons

- Work life balance: depends on who your white label is and if you work strictly for cardinal they have a better work life balance. - Turnover rate in corporate - Learn as you go / 0 training in every role unless if you have a good manager - CYA mentality - High expectations / sometimes unrealistic goals - When corporate comes into town they are never hands on due to having too many meetings in a day
