Pros

Good places to eat around the area

Cons

CEO is not a true leader. He dictates , is arrogant, and self centered and that gets passed down to management and because of that there has been an exodus of talent from the company. Many managers in the company act very differently towards different people, and have been caught being two-faced. One employee has been with the company apparently for many years and it's a joke that they won't do anything about her. They're smart enough to avoid putting nastiness in emails and in front of others, but some of what they say and how they treat people in private is so disgusting that coworkers have talked about how we wished we recorded certain conversations. Some of them are seriously not good human beings even if they pretend to be. The turnover rate here is well known to be really bad. I didn't know when I joined that everyone except maybe a few stayed out of the 10+ people who left. People are so unhappy that SEVERAL have quit before even having another job lined up. You can tell from the way people behave in the office. They come in, lower their head to do their job in front of their computer, eat at their desk, and leave. There are some people literally doing the simultaneous work of multiple others who have left. They have two people trying to add culture to the office but horribly backfiring. They are really aggressive and pushy and their roots program is all about what YOU can do for THEM and how you can make them more money and mask it by calling it "creating something remarkable". They push to be at the office so they can monitor if you are working because leaders think we are all lazy or doing a side job.

Pros

Civicom has the benefit of a "small company" feel but with a global footprint. Management team is engaged and accessible. Firm is providing cutting edge AI-enable products to financial and health-care clients. Very unique culture, with emphasis on providing amazing customer value, always improving, and doing the right thing. For example, 10% of the company's profits are donated to charity.

Cons

Employees are spread out across 4-5 different locations in the U.S. so the home office is fairly small.

Pros

The only pro I would say is the great people in HR.

Cons

- you will not learn any new skill. - If the manager does not like you, be prepared for bypassed promotions and overloaded work schedule. - you are paid a pittance. - the only people who benefit here are those that are higher level managers - and only because they know how to play the game in a dirty way.

Civicom doesn't let politics get in the way of employee development, it's against our culture and values. Growth in the company is based on merit and mission-fit. We urge anyone observing or experiencing otherwise to report concerns to HR, directly to the CEO, or anonymously, and we take these reports seriously. We also recognize the need to strengthen our learning & development programs and we are actively working on it. It's a work in progress that takes time. In terms of compensation, we try to stay competitive in the market. While increases may not be annually, the company gives periodic bonuses to qualified employees. Overall, we appreciate your feedback. We are intent on investing in the right people wisely -- those who are committed to the cause and are fully in the game. We enjoy challenges and love to work with people who feel the same.
