Pros
Little travel, headquarters based in Houston, technology industry
Kontras
Arbitrary career advancement, little investment in people, lack of caring about career paths/promotion readiness. The company does not invest in a basic understanding of the company among its people (half the financial analysts could not tell you exactly what their company sells). In fact, people are often told that learning what the company does is something that they should do on their own time. Career advancement is based rather blatantly on kissing up to the boss, and as a result, Sr Finance leadership has little experience of best practices outside the company or knowledge of how to run a Finance organization inside the company. Each individual is technically qualified but the lack of leadership means that each individual operates as an island.
