Everyone Counts Reviews

It is true that there is growth that Everyone Counts, but that is due to investors and not supported by revenue. It is unsustainable and a mass layoff will be coming after the next large failure. The health insurance benefits are not good. Vacation hours are not accrued and is spun off as "unlimited vacation time" but this isn't realistic. There is no 401k matching (although there is a 401k plan). The company also classifies some workers as exempt (salary) to not pay overtime - this is illegal and they get away with it because workers will not collectively come together and call them out on it for fear of losing their job. Salary is always a tricky game as it's very hard to get a raise ... unless you threaten to quit. The products are immature and requirements are always changing. There is a lack of standardized processes which results in incorrect implementations and massive amounts of bugs. This leads to a lot of hours worked on nights and weekends for an effort that ultimately fails. These are all symptoms of a much deeper issue related to the bad decision making skills of the CEO. Beware of the positive reviews as they are brought on by recruiters asking why this company was rated so low and the marketing department sent a mass email to all employees to give 5-star ratings on glassdoor. Obvious in Nov 2015 where multiple 5-star reviews are stacked next to each other on the same and consecutive days. Honest reviews are more spread out and given during random times.

The CEO, Lori Steele, is literally the last person on earth qualified to run this company. Good idea you had a decade ago Ms Steele, way to not allow the people who could make it happen do their jobs. Ms Steele wants the be the BEST FEMALE at this, and the BEST CEO at that - all at the expense of her company being successful. Getting investments is easier when you believe your own lies. The VPs, Directors, Senior Directors, COOs - any executive in this company whose name is not Lori Steele is not allowed to make ANY decisions. The VPs honestly say "okay, great idea, I will have to get it approved, I don't make decisions." This company is based on a very rigid hierarchy, and there is really no movement upward despite the "we promote from within." I mean, they sure do promote from within - if you want more job responsibilities and a new made up title, with no financial compensation, step right up they've got a job for you! The company claims to have "unlimited PTO" - which translates to - you will never get to take another vacation in your life. There have been employees who booked travel, had it approved by their managers, and then were told that they had to cancel their plans and stay and work. Or, if you DO go on a vacation, better take your computer because if not you'll be buying one out of pocket to do the work from where ever you are located. You will want to work anywhere else, but the unrealistic work schedule will leave you here way longer than you'd like, because you can't find the time to apply for a new job.
