Pros
People: a lot of the original Cheetah folks are smart, talented, and want to do a good job. They are great people to work with and learn from. Technology : it's a work in progress, but it has the potential to be a very cool platform
Cons
- New management : since the divestment from Experian all of the new leadership has come from Exact Target/Salesforce. They then proceeded to lay off a bunch of employees (despite promising no layoffs), and then back filled those positions with cronies from their old company. - Zero career path: unless you are one of the people brought over from Exact Target / Salesforce, you will be ignored by the new management, often have no idea who you report to, and certainly have no hopes for promotion or advancement. - Decision making : all decisions since the divestment have been made in a vacuum by a small circle of ET folks. Original employees haven't been involved or consulted in any way, resulting poor decisions being made and unhappy clients - Communication : nothing is ever communicated (unless, of course, you came from ET), leading to rumors, speculation and an overall sense of unease. HR, if it even exists, is a joke. All we are told is that leadership has a lot on their plates and no time to communicate. - Lack of vision : the new leadership team holds cheerleading meetings and sends emails full of empty words and fancy project names, but no vision has been specifically articulated and acted upon. When we ask for a roadmap to share with our clients, we are told "it's coming"... and continue to be told that 4 months later.
