Pros
If the company actually had the culture they say they have - I may not have left. There are good things, good people, and a fair culture. There’s free food sometimes. Many of the leaders are great people.
Kontras
They have a way of burning through their most dedicated corporate staff by running every team at 99% capacity all the team. Strategy work is regularly pushed aside for whatever senior leaders believe is important that week. There’s never agreement- just working and reworking to eventually hit a moving target. And the collision centers? Everyone there is miserable. They feel overwhelmed with no real usable support from corporate. To the centers, the corporate office provides no real value. Compensation is quite below market average. Benefits are more expensive than other companies this size. Vacation policy is mediocre unless you’re a Director. It’s hard to negotiate a better pay rate when the bar is low across all other colleagues. And good luck trying to save some money by working from home becuase there isn’t a company-wide standard on that. It really is up to how willing or unwilling your supervisor is to be a remote. (Note: there are people who do work 100% remote, even out of state and come in periodically, but that’s almost out of the question if your manager isn’t on board. Some of these changes would be easy to introduce with increased revenue, except nobody in the marketing department knows how to collaborate with sales, operations, or insurance companies to actually move the needle.
