Callibrity Reviews

* company doesn't just fall short of its stated values, it doesn't bother reaching for them * extremely poor project management. unwilling or unable to lead inexperienced clients, electing instead to give them the reigns as long as the checks keep coming in, at the expense of putting long term project success and client happiness in jeopardy * poor management in general: mismatching people for roles, misevaluation of new hires, and constant restructuring * job insecurity. my 4-6 person team had a half-dozen replacements in about a year * upper management seems to just reactively scramble about as opposed to lead with a steady hand * upper management bizarrely does a lot of hand-waiving when it comes to addressing employee concerns. it acts befuddled by individuals' concerns and characterizes them as unfounded or a misunderstanding... even if it caused someone to leave the company. this did not happen with any of my concerns, but to many during quarterly meetings * minor thing, but company meetings, voluntary training, things of this nature are considered off the clock. mark against work/life balance

PTO is very low and they offer very little holidays for how much they brag about having work life balance. Benefits all around are average at best. Because they are a younger consulting company, they have a lot of unfulfilling projects and say yes to too much. So you could get put on a project that is a "butts in seats situation". Which for some this can be relaxing and stable... until you get pulled off the project which is to be expected in consulting, and then you could get put in another project where you aren't even developing, just on production support for weeks...This is the worst part about this job. If a client wants you to be a factory worker and pull a lever for 8 hours straight, in most cases it feels like Callibrity would allow that as long as the client is paying enough. Not all projects are like this, but more than 3 of these types of projects have existed for years and don't seem to be going away anytime soon. The company of course wants more outcome based projects, but they can't afford to turn the money they make on these boring projects that don't have much direction.
