Pros
• The People: Just Kidding! The ones that made this place worthwhile are all long gone now, either for better jobs where they wouldn’t be mistreated, or they were terminated. *Fun Fact: The majority of people in the above About Us video and photos have long left the company. • Versatile "Senior" Management: With the ability to display equal amounts of incompetence, negligence, and ineptitude, while simultaneously steering to deliberately hit every possible iceberg in the water is truly something one must see with their own eyes to believe. •Advanced Vocabulary: For those who are lucky enough you will be introduced to a world of outdated terminology used by management to belittle those beneath them. You will hear such colorful terms like “insubordination”, used to label employees that are left to blame for the incompetence of their “managers”. If you happen to be an American employee you may even be fortunate enough to hear the opinions of upper management in regards to their “co-workers” who reside in China and India. • Passion: Tangoe is passionate. Passionate about constantly asking employees to leave good reviews on GlassDoor instead of attempting to create a better working environment. Reviews that are 4-5’s tend to be written under pressure. I’ve seen more passion put into this than actual onboarding of new employees. • Fresh Paint (Endless supply): A thick fresh-coat of paint is applied regularly. When evidence of racism, sexism, and bullying is brought to the attention of senior management, often this paint will be applied so fast that you’ll be left baffled at the speed used to ignore these issues. One may even start to wonder why this much effort is never applied to actual business growth. *Added Bonus: You’ll never run out of “new” executives and “new” board members, trying to sell Snake-Oil®. It’s a constant revolving door, top to bottom.
Cons
• POC need not apply. The most diversity you’ll see are on the outdated employee images and video deliberately left up on GlassDoor. These are kept to create an illusion of diversity in a company that doesn’t want to have any. Well… unless it’s on paper of course. At a safe distance. • The kind of place where you are asked to look the other way as an Executives daughter is Grandfather’d (in this case Grandmother’d) into a role that they themselves had personally just bullied someone out of. Then brace yourself to cringe as the Executive tries to casually joke about the increased state of nepotism. I would say “grow up” but the ones doing this are already considered to be elderly. • A lot of new Executives (i.e. Marketing) are at such an advanced age that basic technology is difficult for them to grasp. Frightening to think that in the year 2022 a basic Powerpoint can nearly stop an entire department. Never seen this in my entire career, but THIS IS TANGOE.
