This job is a mirage

Pros

Nice employees, above-average pay for the area, free lunch on Fridays, occasional access to ski passes.

Cons

Management is extremely ineffective at maintaining a level of consistency with job functions/performance. A lot of internal turmoil with voices being raised on a regular basis. Dealing with the CEO will make you want to gouge your eyes out....which is what he is counting on. He hates paying unemployment, so once he's done with you (and trust me, turnover is SUPER high because nobody can possibly hit this guys expectations) he will make your life an absolute hell until you just quit. I know the job looks good, but I assure you, those good looks are nothing but a mirage

Pros

The pay was okay...massages were fairly nice...Friday lunch was decent

Cons

I don't even know where to start because there are so many. Let's start at the top...the CEO. The CEO was rude and felt he was entitled to treat you like scum. He would yell at employees could constantly and employees would chalk that up to him being "passionate" about his company. I call BS on that. The employees are all fresh out of college and don't know a good CEO/boss yet. They assume that's normal...well it's not. Get out!! Find someone who appreciates you!! Next the COO, he and the CEO push honesty and integrity yet they are missing those qualities themselves. If you discuss something to the COO he will turn and throw you under the bus. After which he will go and smoke his cigarettes (or whatever drug he has) to feel better about treating you so badly. Since treating their employees like garbage and chalk that up to it being a part of the "culture" they have to make up for it with the perks. Yes- massages, lunch, boot camp, etc are good in theory but it's just a crutch they use to draw people in. Don't fall for it! This company isn't worth your time, talents, or most importantly your self esteem. I am giving SCOTTeVEST a one star only because I have to. They deserve much less.

Pros

Salaries were good for this area where FT professional jobs are hard to come by. Good benefits and you can take your dog to work.

Cons

The CEO has a bad reputation locally and it's well deserved. He acts like Steve Jobs (temper tantrums and yells) but doesn't have Jobs' genius to command respect. He hires recent college grads because they don't have the experience to know that the way this company is run is not right. Stress levels were very high -- the COO snuck out every 20 minutes to smoke a cigarette and was popping aspirin like candy. There was no clear job description, no tour of the building even, and management expected people to read their minds and immediately understand the company culture and style. There was no time for assimilation or room for error. And don't ever ask a question! You're supposed to google anything you don't know. I was very glad to leave.
