Pros
Some super smart people in key positions (CEO, HR, PMO); generous social benefits (summer dinner cruise around Manhattan; elegant holiday party) and new annual Town Hall Meeting where the CEO and COO share the direction and goals of AxiomSL and express sincere appreciation for the staff's efforts. The continued efforts to formalize administrative processes as we move from a small "mom and pop" company to a global organization of 800+ employees worldwide is paying off. If you have skills and abilities outside your formal job description, the company welcomes your contribution which is refreshing.
Kontras
Some of the attitudes of the old culture remain: managers who barely talk to their direct reports much less guide them and other managers who talk a good game but don't add value.
