Acuity Brands – This is a company that looks good on paper. They try very hard to maintain a tech valuation, but this is an old school hard goods company. There are some remnants of the old, toxic culture walking around. Lots of cronyism and nepotism. I wouldn't recommend leaving anything promising to come here. | Comparably
