Thank you for your years of service to MacKay Sposito. We are sorry to hear you believe we’ve lost our way. As a business we certainly need to focus on making money, but we don’t ever want that to overwhelm our reason for existing: to serve so our communities thrive. We try very hard to live up to that ideal, but there will always be ways for us to improve. We will take your comments to heart and we wish you the best.
Great co-workers....interesting work/ projects....good work environment...excellent benefits. The company has some great clients!!
Cons
Stupid bonus system (no actual system)- sqeeky wheel raises (not merit)- corporate craziness (changes every ten minutes)....bad decisions- bad leadership....no concept of treating existing employees fairly - high turnover of employees they could have easily kept!!
