Pros

CQL underwent a significant transition in early 2024 when it was acquired by new management. While change always comes with its challenges and growing pains, the new leadership has been actively working to navigate this shift while keeping the entire team involved. They’ve demonstrated a genuine commitment to listening to employees by conducting two surveys to gather our opinions and feedback, which has already led to notable improvements. Our benefits have seen significant enhancements, new processes have been implemented to align with the company’s updated vision, and upper management makes a clear effort to connect with and understand the staff.

Cons

At the end of 2024, we had to say goodbye to some great coworkers, and it’s never easy. Everyone handles these situations differently, but I really feel like leadership has been working hard to support us and make the transition as smooth as possible. They’ve held several meetings where we’ve been able to share our thoughts and concerns, and it’s clear they’re doing their best to help those who left. As we move forward, we’re staying focused on the future and feeling hopeful about making 2025 a great year.

Pros

CQL is not an organization for beginners or those content with simply meeting the minimum requirements. It’s a place that demands excellence, built and led by professionals who have spent years mastering their craft. The leadership team stands out because they’ve done the work themselves—and, in many cases, continue to do so. This is a workplace for high performers. Our team consists of individuals who take pride in their work, view it as their craft, and approach each day with a passion for going above and beyond. The high standards here are reinforced by strong processes and clear expectations. CQL is not for everyone, and some Glassdoor reviews reflect that reality. However, what remains is a dedicated group of professionals who thrive in this environment. If you’re a career-minded individual who values high performance and refuses to settle for mediocrity, CQL could be the ideal place for you.

Cons

At CQL, it’s not uncommon to find your day packed with back-to-back meetings, leaving little room for downtime in between. This reflects the dynamic and fast-paced nature of the organization rather than a shortcoming. However, it’s important for prospective candidates to understand that success here requires adaptability. If you’re not accustomed to managing a high volume of meetings or navigating frequent context switching, you may find this environment challenging. That said, for those who thrive in a busy, high-energy setting, this could be an excellent fit.
