Executive at the start of tenure was discussing the 'war of northern aggression'. If you don't know what that means, it's a racist statement.
Outside of Inside Sales reps that work on the marketplace accounts, seems no one can make it a year on this team.
You'll see nepotism mentioned in reviews, and you definitely see that more than you would at the average company, though not by a wide margin from what you'd expect at a company this size that grew in a small town area.
