Worst place I ever worked in my life - Anonymous employee Lanyon Employee Review

This is the closest I've ever come to joining a sect. Lanyon runs the organization like a religious sect. Leadership are forced to recite verbatim stock phrases, and anyone who asks shy is shunned and eventually pushed out of the organization. David Bonnet is an ego-maniac who doesn't want to hear anything about reality. He tells the teams, he doesn't care and doesn't want to hear about it. He hires attractive 20 year olds and then parties with them until 6 in the morning and thinks that it is the 20 year olds that will take technology to the next level. Unfortunately, these very talented individuals are right out of university with no relevant work experience, and stumble and fall in front of business customers. Not their fault, they just have no prior experience and need years to grow into the positions. Most of the talent Lanyon had has now left the company, leaving just a handful of individuals who still truly understand what the tools do, what they won't do, and how to provide customers with workarounds. Mr. Bonnet has destroyed Passkey since the purchase by tripling the purchase price and firing all the folks that really understand the tool. StarCite is also losing ground against Cvent because of the lack of understanding about what customers really want. If you are considering working for this company, think again. Honestly, I have never experienced anything like Lanyon. The worst experience in my life, and so happy to be free. Find something else, but don't even think of joining Lanyon. You'll be glad you didn't.
