Pros

Decent pay Great colleagues (below upper management) The SKELETON for a moderately enjoyable organization still exists

Cons

ZMC is a joke! I legitimately cannot believe some of the business decisions made by this organization; it seems that every decision is the wrong one. Clients are not put first, transparency (important in our industry) is decreasing, workloads are higher and frankly unachievable, everyone is afraid of getting fired, it takes ridiculously long to get answers on issues from upper management (most, there are some who work. Others are by the golf course), everyone is doing 2-3 people's workload (and not paid for that, obviously), nearly all efforts at employee appreciation have ceased, they do these long and weirdly out of touch town halls where they talk about we are failing but things are great (fake smile) and show these silly goals they clearly set based on COVID success (like so clearly a black swan) and everyone is always doom and gloom, multiple major management changes in the last 8 months, multiple rounds of layoffs..... And what's insane about all of this, is we are a market-driven (pun intended) organization-- thats the whole rub. We are suffering because the US is in the first bear market in 15 years. In a year or whatever the market will turn around, growth will churn up substantially, and the richies at the top will say they made it happen. The company follows the general market like an RSI follows a ticker price.

I'm sincerely sorry that you feel this way. The company is doing the best it can as it navigates the current market, both the trading and economic market. It is difficult to respond to anonymous reviews and either myself or the CEO would be happy to have a more engaged conversation with you to discuss your concerns. Thank you.
