Pros

Helping my clients achieve success

Cons

Leadership is lost. They remain clueless on how to run the company. It’s a mixture of old school sales management with 2022 wokeness. Sprinkle in a solid helping of BS. Competition continues to outwork and outthink the company. We are at a significant disadvantage due to management.

Pros

- Great team from department head down - Collaboration is encouraged - Self-starter culture with good room for side projects - "See something, say something" approach allows questioning methodology without a feeling of personal attacks or "dumb questions" and enables team members to support each other in a safe environment - Work from home

Cons

- Executive leadership does not know what they want - Consistent turnover in C-Suite leads to departments acting like small internal companies rather than part of a larger system - Limited permission access for team members means that any absence or time-off can lead to a backlog of deployments
