Pros

Coffee Subsidized lunchs PTO 401K Work life balance

Cons

Backstabbing culture - people steal work and presents as their own Favoritism towards males - specifically Caucasian across all teams Promotion based on popularity NOT merit CEO thinks diversity is having white women in leadership positions...SMH. Very clickish People don’t lead, they delegate Profit is #1, not the people Blame culture Executives lack bandwidth - look at stock $ Very corrupt work environment - don’t tell the truth and maybe they won’t find out... Bad leaders develop bad managers that are unfit. Dated mentality of leadership and success

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback as it will continue to help us improve our constantly evolving environment. We take these types of comments very seriously as demonstrated by our Town Hall meetings, Great Places to work and employee surveys. And of course we very much hope you’ll share your concerns with your direct manager or the HR team – we simply can’t get better if we don’t have good examples where we can improve…we want transparency, plus this is an opportunity for us (and your manager) to learn and grow. Elevate is committed to our people, and we want to ensure that we foster an environment of transparency, learning and upward mobility. We make every attempt to promote integrity in everything we do, by putting our employees and customers first. We are confident in our future and know that a strong foundation is needed to achieve sustainable profitability as a business. Sometimes, we have to take a step backwards to move forward. Do we always get it right? No, but as we grow as an organization, we take those learnings and apply that to how we communicate, do the right thing and win together. Since you are a current employee, I encourage you to bring these concerns to your direct manager or the HR team. And I do hope your outlook and experience at Elevate improve – it can’t be fun feeling the way you do.

As with most growing organizations, some processes and documentation are still being refined. At times priorities can shift quickly, which may require flexibility.

Pros

Good culture, but depending on the team. Mine was great, but I didn't hear good things about some teams

Cons

They don't care about employees; you don't have any value there. They find excuses to terminate for non-critical reasons if they need to, They don't have fair and honest performance evaluations. You are judged based on your last weeks and they don't care what you've done for years and months. Imagine that they fired their CCO after 14 years of service in the first week of the new year! One more thing, their IT team is terrible and works like a slug! So if you done your job, your work is obsolete when it is deployed by the IT.
