Proceed with Caution - Project Manager Northern Commerce Employee Review

The Company: - The pay is not up to industry standards, especially now that remote work is the norm. - The leadership team is prone to creating a "boys club" culture and loudly/publicly includes certain other male employees in expensive trips. - Ongoing complaints are rarely addressed at the leadership level. - Inappropriate behavior on work trips or at parties is always excused. - Anything that isn't immediately creating value or profit for the company is not deemed important. - No specific career plans are put in place until you ask for help. - The diversity effort here is nonexistent. The Project Management Department: - Clients can be combative and instead of helping the PMs forge relationships and create a better culture, higher ups swoop in and give clients whatever they want, effectively bypassing the PMs and lowering client/PM trust. - PMO Leader does not fully engage with the team and leaves us feeling frustrated and unheard. - Processes are changed on a dime and rolled out without any clear plan or help. - Talented PMs leave regularly. - A specific group is deemed more important than other PMs and only their input is considered valuable. - Those same PMs are praised for doing the bare minimum, while other PMs are working over 50 hours a week to launch complex and important projects for the team. - Internal training is not a priority, and when PMs try to make it a priority, it is deemed less important than client work. - Resourcing : Ensuring that there are enough resources to handle projects does not seem to be important to anyone making those decisions. We are all overworked. - Projects are sold low, and discounts are given so that we are set up to fail on even the smallest project. - If you want to feel appreciated or valued, I would caution against working here.
