Pros

Easy access to other departments - once they've got a face to a name, people are super helpful! Work with some pretty brilliant and helpful people

Kontras

People get away with posting fake orders & metrics The man who lead the team that posted the most fake/innacurate orders keeps getting promoted (it's good to be the CEO's nephew, right?) Employee feedback is only valued when you're at plan (that's been five to ten sales reps/mo out of around 80) Leadership only cares about what you produce - don't expect anyone to assist you with personal growth Working with depts at other locations is painful unless they're one of the few in their role that care about the cusotmer Half the support teams are now in Manila - they speak English well, but their comprehension is poor and extremely painful to both internal employees and customers The company wasted $100,000 on a bare bones knock-off plug-in for SalesForce (which they could not get to implement correctly) They use the "spaghetti standard" for lead gen - throw ideas out into the internet and see what sticks

Pros

There are some very fine, committed people who spend every day, against long odds, trying to provide good service for their customers. There are also some great people in engineering, sales and marketing. They come to work every day to keep this clown car of a company running and not jumping off the road..

Kontras

The company in its latest iteration is flailing to find its market with little hope for success. This failure to grow and thrive is borne by the workers but is in fact the fault of the CEO & board and decisions they made when breaking up the previous version of MegaPath. The expression "The beatings will continue until morale (and sales) improve" is spot on for MegaPath. Sadly there is little hope for improvement. Oh and all those sparkly reviews you read here? A mandatory managers meeting was held a few months ago to discuss them. Rather than try to understand why there were so many negative reviews, zero discussion, the CEO mandated that managers should coordinate writing positive reviews, one or two a month, to try to burnish the company's ratings.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. While it is no secret that the company underwent a lot of change with the two divestitures, we have launched some exciting new products and are seeing improvement in our sales activity. We recognize and greatly appreciate the dedication and skillful talent of our people which is a key difference maker for our customers. Regarding the comments on morale - the company recently conducted an employee satisfaction survey in which the results showed much improvement from last year and in many cases, the company results were higher than industry norms. These results, in part, are due to collaborating with employees and implementing their suggestions. To address the comment on the Glassdoor reviews: a leadership meeting was held in which our employer brand was discussed - including Facebook, Glassdoor and Indeed - however there was no 'mandate' for managers to write positive reviews. Managers were encouraged to submit a review if they were so inclined and were not given any directive as to what to say in their review. As you know, the reviews on Glassdoor are anonymous and it cannot be determined that positive reviews are only from management.. Given the positive improvement from the employee feedback survey and several of employee reviews, it looks like directionally things are improving. We remain very committed to continuous improvement and believe that our people share a similar view.
