Pros

The company is always in a chaotic state of growth, and you’ll have the opportunity to learn new skills.

Cons

Many of the problems at FieldEdge stem from leadership. Promotions are based on office politics instead of experience and work ethic. Leadership likes to call the company a family, but there’s a clear divide between the "inner circle" and everyone else. HR is pure optics at this point. They’ll turn a blind eye to employee concerns and inappropriate employee-manager relationships. Senior leadership thinks the solution to these issues is to have more meetings, but that doesn’t get to the core of the problem. The toxic environment will always be pervasive unless they change who they put in charge.

Thank you for taking the opportunity to share your feedback. I was particularly concerned about issues raised in relation to HR as I can assure that a blind eye is never turned to any accusation brought forward. All accusations are investigated and acted upon immediately, however with that said I could understand why this may be perceived differently given that all investigations are conducted and addressed privately to protect the individuals involved. If there is a specific situation you feel has not been addressed, I would highly encourage you to reach out to me directly at bware@fieldedge.com so I can investigate further. We have developed internal career paths within each team that outline opportunities for growth and provide metrics for attainment. Our goal is to share cross-functional career paths with the entire organization in the coming months. Please keep in mind, all position opportunities are posted internally and externally noting the responsibilities and expectations of those roles; therefore, if an employee is interested in another opportunity within the organization, they should follow the process of applying for such role.

Explor Ever since Explor was purchased by a PE firm, every aspect of the company to the most granular detail has effectively gone up in flames. For anyone who needs context, PE firms are parasites that steal exorbitant amounts of money from the companies they buy out - and then they have 26 year old matcha drinking ‘financial associates’ in some high rise in NYC make pivotal business decisions that negatively affect hundreds of employees’ lives all because they learned in an MBA class that making the ‘costs’ line in the Excel spreadsheet go down would make the ‘profit’ line go up. The first ‘strategic’ business decision made was to cut down on software developers (to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel), which has resulted in a WORSE product - then they hiked the price on customers (Again, to make the ‘profit’ line go up in Excel) which as anyone would have expected, enraged ALL our customers. The resultant employees who didn’t abruptly leave are now tormented daily with more and more ignoramus ‘strategic’ business decisions and treated like ants that a child is playfully burning alive with a magnifying glass. If you want to be treated with any human dignity whatsoever, Explor will not be a good fit for you. However, if you want every day at work to feel like you are a participant in the Stanford Prison Experiment while simultaneously having to take calls at all hours from every customer who wont stop asking “Why does the software I pay money for to run my business no longer work”, Explor will be the perfect future employer for you to take that big next step in your career.
