Unethical policies - Anonymous employee Backstop Solutions Employee Review

Pros

The snacks, beer and people are easily some great reasons to work at Backstop but they're outweighed by the cons for many people.

Cons

No upward momentum. The HR policy is (seriously) to NOT give people a raise when they're promoted until they've been doing that job for 6 months. It gives no incentive to do well and get promoted. If you want a promotion(and wish to be actually paid for what you're doing), you have to leave the company. They said that "this is for the employee to see if they like the job" but nowhere else that I've worked does this. It's a terrible policy. Hired from the outside? Great, they'll pay you what you deserve. Promoted from within? Too bad. No raise for 6 months. No incentive to do better work.

Pros

Loved the team I was on. Processes are lock-tight with stellar internal trainings and resources to prepare you for your role. Help was always available from leadership. Pay and benefits were good too.

Cons

Volume of work was way too high creating burnout. Culture was too political and mainly leaning one way. Executives can be way too harsh toward middle management seeing this on more than one occasion on calls.
