Pros
Most people are very nice and easy to work with. There are sporadic work events with free food. During the summer months, Fridays end 2 hours early. The work environment is very casual and relaxed with a dress code to match. The benefits package is okay and compensation is generally fair.
Cons
The CEO is a convicted felon of a violent crime and I urge anyone considering working here to look into it first to make sure you are comfortable working for someone charged with that crime.
Most of the upper management team lacks the professional experience and education to adequately perform in their roles. The level of fiscal irresponsibility and poor judgment from the upper management team has had disastrous consequences. This is evident in the fact the company has now undergone 2 substantial layoffs in less than 2 years, though no changes were made to the upper management team. While business downturn may have sufficed as rationale for the first layoff, the second layoff after consecutive profitable months can only be ascribed to gross mismanagement.
Operation’s processes are slow and inefficient, which is only exacerbated by snap decision making from managers about major process changes without proper planning, testing and deployment. Despite shoehorning the EOS framework into the business, no departments follow congruent processes and no formal structures for cross-department cooperation in process development exist. EOS also acts as a hindrance to productivity in meetings and enforces a culture of toxic positivity where valid criticism is brushed off as negativity.
