Cons
Senior Management (CEO & CFO ) have created a lot of drama and chaos in the organization that has turn staff against each other and has turn SOCMA into a hostile work environment where staff don't even communicate with each other anymore and don't trust each other. Mostly every one sit behind closed doors for the ones who have offices and the rest that have cubicles just are not sociable at all. There is a growing lack of trust and respect from the staff for the CEO & the CFO due to the fact that the staff has been wronged by the two of them on numerous occasions. If you are not one of the favorites of the senior management you are missed for promotions and you will be treated differently than theirs favorites. The disorganization that is currently present in the company is disgraceful you have select individuals that are not given any direction due to the poor leadership and the lack of organization. The staff on numerous occasions are left to fin for themselves and to complete projects without any direction. Last but not least the salaries are below what other similar associations and companies are paying.They work you to death but don' want to pay you for your hard work they short change you.
