Shutterstock Environment Employee Reviews

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

a lot of good people work here.

They have great benefits, meeting free Wednesday and summer Fridays.

Review from HR Dept

good food and sweets and coffee

The costumers are very friendly

Content is a really nice product to sell - creativity !

Review from Sales Dept

Exciting space with talented community members and employees

Morale is low, high employee and manager turn-over

Review from Sales Dept

When we identify a problem, we don't point fingers at who is to blame. Instead, we try to identify a way to prevent it from happening again

Review from HR Dept

The environment is generally warm. I've never felt uncomfortable at work for any reason and I enjoy the layout of the office.

Review from HR Dept

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

The place needs more stability and to really care about their employees. At this point they don't.

I have been there long enough, through 3 CEOs, to think that it's not fixable. It's rotten to the core.

There needs to be a reset and HR/Exec Team need to listen to its people. Until they come out of the vaccuum they operate in, we are all screwed. More good people will jump ship and things will continue to worsen.

Learn from the Wizard of Oz. Give the head of Technology a brain, the head of Product a heart, and the head of Marketing courage.

Get rid of toxic executives driving away the good people and bringing in sycophants with political loyalty but no experience and no intelligence.

CEO and the executive board needs to go.
