Not Worth the Effort

Pros

It’s is an interesting company, and there are smart employees who work here. The people are great for the most part.

Cons

It takes WAY too much effort to work here and it isn’t worth it. They put way too much emphasis on KPO’s and the raise you get for your hard work is mediocre at best. There are way too many meetings and by the time you do meetings and KPO’s, PDP’s etc., etc., etc., you barely have time to do your real job that you was actually hired for. As a result of all the work and the commute to Alpharetta, the work-life balance is terrible. Currently, it’s not a fun company to work for. There are other companies that require way less and pays way more.

Great people, great clients, completely disorganized management

Pros

The Aviation industry is interesting and the people you meet are fascinating. There is a wide variety of applications and projects, enough to keep things very interesting from a market prospective.

Cons

Massive amounts of turn over. The upper management cannot get its act together with a clear vision and has multiple sales managers and heads of sales over the years. As each one comes in, they cull and restructure, and there is a lot of paranoia and finger pointing, making it an extremely stressful and political place to work. The company itself espouses a "people first" tenant and then fires indiscriminately. It is a very unstable working environment, where you never feel safe.

Lots of Potential, but shaky execution

Pros

Truly fantastic people, smart, collaborative, supportive. Interesting and complex domain with aviation that keeps changing and stays fresh. Great place to work on real data problems with an international reach that is rare to work on. Lots of change is happening, which can be viewed as a great chance to join and be part of that change. It's likely a great chance for new talent to join the company and help shape it's next chapters.

Cons

If one is looking for something a little more sure-footed, or a place where roles/responsibilities are clear, or defined reliably, this isn't the place for you. The company is undergoing a great deal of change, and it's an unstable place to work in that way. For some that is great news so they can evolve with the company, for others, it's a major stress factor. Healthcare is incredibly poor in the US; it's not competitive with other rates, and the company has a casual and British attitude towards US healthcare issues which are complex and not great, but we need to be competitive with other companies nearby. The management team doesn't seem to be working well, it's a small company with lots of geographic spread, but its clearly uncoordinated and hard to understand what is important, or how things should be prioritized or funded. The most regular updates about our stock price seem to paint a picture that all that matters is short term wins, and no real long term plans seem to be there, or if they are, I don't know how we fit into them. We lack strong leadership to bring things together and steer the group towards our goals. With so many acquisitions, it feels painful how disconnected the group is.
