Pros

There are some great people in this company who really want to make a positive impact.

Cons

There is little to no upward mobility in this organization, which is shocking as the Senior Recruiter really tries to sell this to candidates during interviews. The turnover rate is incredibly high, especially with more entry level positions, as there is little to no chance of moving up within the company. The culture at HQ is old school and does not allow employees with fresh ideas to voice them in a way that they are actually heard. Most of the new changes are being done for appearances instead of actually bettering themselves as an employer. Many managers have incredibly poor management skills, and while these concerns are voiced nothing is done about it. Town Halls are spoken about constantly as a way to prove there is "Open Communication" but this is not the case, and really just another fake claim the Recruiters make.
