Dysfunctional Doesn’t Begin To Describe It

Pros

Let me see... 1) Work From Home Friday’s 2) New Office 3) Summer Hours 4) Convenient Location Close To Grand Central

Cons

Where to begin.... 1) Every day there is a new crisis. Which means endless amounts of rework, and very long days that are stressful, and anxiety inducing. 2) The CEO behaves like an overgrown child, only hires her friends or relatives, even though most of them are unqualified, and has zero vision for the company. Her main concern is how to create the illusion that the company is not a total failure so they can finally get it sold. 3) There is no innovation. They just keep recycling the same old formulas, and try to prop them up with campaigns that make no sense, and visuals that look 20 years old. This is probably why the past 3 launches have failed. 4) The infighting and dysfunction across all departments makes it nearly impossible to get anything accomplished. Plus the lack of planning requires the already overworked departments to take on workloads that are nearly impossible to manage. 5) The turnover rate is very high. The only people that last more than a year are the lifers who have been with the company since the beginning. Within the first 3 months, most of the new hires begin to realize the mess they’ve stepped into, and start looking for the exit sign. 6) The hours are long, the pay is bad and, regardless of what they tell you, bonuses are nonexistent.

A Fast-track to Burning Out

Pros

- At least a dysfunctional organization can teach you what you don’t want in a future work environment? - Beautiful, new, fluorescent bright, and sterile office,

Cons

Strivectin’s company culture is said to be a family which is true if your family comes with emotional baggage, resentment, insecurity and inappropriate/offensive banter. Also, if your family lures you in by promising to write you into their will (bonuses) only to find out you’d be inheriting nothing but high blood pressure.

I'm so sorry to hear this is the experience that you had while working for StriVectin. It is a very fast paced and competitive industry in which we work, but certainly we would hope the pace of the business would never take a negative toll on one's health. StriVectin does not tolerate any unprofessional behavior at any level. We have an open door policy and highly encourage any employee who feels they may be working in a less than professional atmosphere to come forward to Human Resources or Leadership so that we may take appropriate actions to resolve the matter.

Pros

Work from home every other Friday

Cons

Leadership only cares about selling the company and getting their cut. They do not care about you or your career. Turnover rate is the worst I have ever seen. Only positive reviews are from the Leadership team so they can look good to CEO
