Pros

They are trying to move into higher margin businesses. Some interesting work.

Cons

Operating high margin businesses with low margin metrics. About 5 years behind on Internet marketing. Very old school. Operating the company using the X-Matrix could help but it is set up as only stretch goals. It is then used to beat people for not meeting the goals.

Pros

Flexible work schedule for work life balance.

Cons

Lack of mentorship and guidance for new associates. Forced ranking ensures that one associate from your department will receive a poor review and possibly let go just because each department has to reach a certain percentage. Management is forced to rank someone at a level they are not to meet that ranking percentage. Engagement in most facilities are very poor. Most are dissatisfied with management appreciation.
