Pros
At one point NJVC had some of the best talent money could buy. It was truly a WONDERFUL place to work.
Cons
The biggest factor in the failure of this company is the CEO and decisions made without and against senior staff recommendations. I have seen repeated efforts to challenge some clearly uninformed and unintelligent decisions made at the top. Not once or twice (I mean who hasn't screwed up before?)...but many, many of them. Unfortunately, the cocky and self congratulatory manner in which these decisions have been and continue being made is not only jeopardizing the corporation, but the lives of really faithful employees and their families. The hiring of people who have little or no experience, or are moved into roles that they are completely unprepared for because they have friendly relationships will doom this company. Hemorrhaging of money in the direction of the same type of consultants who over promise and under deliver will doom this company. Fear and bending to the will of a terrible leader because you are afraid to lose your job will doom this company. Building a huge palace of an office that will house few soldiers will doom this company. Not listening to smart senior leaders will doom this company. Constant re-orgs and shifting of roles and managers will doom this company. You will continue to lose the talent, you will continue to spin your wheels, and you will continue to kill the spirit of the people you have left.
