Pros
Shorts and flip flops environment
Cons
Money is spent on initiatives that bring little to no ROI to the company, while the infrastructure of the business is completely inadequate, being more aligned for a small mom and pop operation, and not for a mid to high-level business. Very little investment is put into the foundation (experience, people, processes, technology, getting on top of growth, etc.) of the company. Upper management micromanages all processes and employees when they should be out of the weeds and focusing on the bigger picture, not repetitive daily tasks. Employees and managers should be empowered to improve their tasks and become more efficient and held accountable for their actions, or lack there of, successes and failures. There is no transparency or communication into the company with employees. Also there is no cross-department communication on what they do, where they are struggling, or their accomplishments. No metrics or goals are displayed on departments and employees showing ROI. Middle management could not tell you what their employees do, or how they do it. Often those who are poor performers are promoted while the best performers are driven to burnout because they are having to pick up what others aren't accomplishing. There are endless meetings about meetings due to lack of experience and understanding to complete a task, and that is worse if it’s a project. Decisions are made and constantly changed leading to no progress and worsening conditions than they were before. Decisions are made without proper research and feedback from subject matter experts. If you asked employees what the goals of the company were they would have no answer. Having difference of opinion on a task, project, process, department is viewed negatively and not being a team player when it should be heard and viewed as constructive and areas where the company is severely struggling and need improvements. All major components of the company are not in house.
