Pros
Sadly, there is nothing positive to share.
Cons
Working under Chris Finlay at Lloyd Jones was the most unprofessional and disorganized experiences of my career. His erratic decision-making, constant mind-changing, and complete lack of integrity created a toxic work environment. It was common for teams to record meetings just to prove what had been decided, as he frequently forgot or contradicted himself.
Finlay openly bad-mouthed employees and fostered a culture of fear with his infamous mantra, which he repeatedly stated to staff: “Hire fast, fire fast.” This reckless approach led to constant turnover and zero stability. Firings were abrupt, never handled by Chris Finlay, only by others on his behalf, with no warning or accountability. The revolving door at Lloyd Jones is no joke; I’ve never seen higher turnover anywhere.
If you’re considering a position here, think twice. Leadership sets the tone for any company, and under Finlay, that tone is chaotic, uninspiring, and toxic. Proceed with caution.
