If you are interviewing here, ask why people don’t stay at Strategic.
The best brand president they had left. Terrible executive management team. Terrible communication from the top.
No raises. No bonus (but you'll be told you can get one.)
You will feel horrible seeing the materials used to sell franchises. Because you know the truth that what they are told and what they actually get are two different things.
Zero room for growth. You're just a body. More than one brand during my time there had job postings that would be a step up for employees and they were never posted internally. Leave and they will find some other poor person to do your work until they get wise and move on too.
I was there almost 3 years and couldn’t print the entire time. I was told 4 times I would be getting a new computer. That never happened.
One of the brands is a painting company and yet the office is a boring beige cell. Most chairs in the office are broken or worn down, but they won’t buy you a new one. Some of the desks are flat- out garbage. My overhead bin would get stuck if I opened it all the way.
When you do give notice, you won’t be paid for any unused vacation time.
Most of the employees are very stressed out. It truly was soul crushing.
