Pros

colleagues and customers, product set, individual leadership teams around the country

Cons

Poor systems integration and support create many challenges to selling and ordering, long after mergers. Overloaded provisioners because Monroe leadership has unrealistic plans to get to automation which is, if years off, near impossible due to product complexity and systems issues. Very limited recognition programs, near constant reorganization and layoffs, unresponsive HR department, and while benefits could be considered 'standard' that's not saying much as there is a singular choice of healthcare provider, which is also just average and large copays. One wonders what kind of caliber leadership you can attract to a HQ like Monroe, LA.

Pros

Medical Benefits are very good. Not a lot of micromanagement unless your leader doesnt understand the resources to pull this info. AI is highly encouraged, not required... which is a nice balance.

Cons

Random layoffs every couple months. Kate Johnson doesn't understand the importance of credibility in this space. Q1 customer meetings are majority introduction meetings due to constant account realignment. Leadership pretends to believe they know these are large enterprise accounts, but their actions reflect a transactional sales approach.
