Pros

This was an amazing place to work prior to the private equity firm acquired them and replaced the entire executive team.

Cons

New CEO is the epitome of a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Completely restructures organization, changed salary’s and compensation plans (along with roles and responsibilities) multiple times. Additionally, the CEO and others from the executive team got in a room, with NO conversation with people managers, directors, etc. and just made significant cuts due to the pandemic, YET they had enough cash to acquire a company after the layoffs. DO NOT WORK HERE... I still have many friends in the organization who said moral is really, really low and the new C-Suite no longer cares about people, only how they can get the PE Firm to their exit faster.

Pros

My team was very committed to our customers and very collaborative with each other. Everyone was kind to each other, and historically there had been opportunities for mentorship and career development.

Cons

Unclear expectations from leadership. We always felt like we were trying to play catch up with how things were changing. We also always felt like we were underpaid.
