Your experience depends on your department.
|

Enjoy working here, almost everyone in the corporate office is lovely. Middle mangers and a few of the executives are very accessible.
Had a good relationship with my supervisor which made working here a great experience.
Love the monthly lunch and have great work / life balance.
|
We are being acquired and are on a very lean budget.

Company has/had good benefits package for employees.

Free Lunch and strong support from fellow accounting staff
|
Company going through downsizing and people are protective of their jobs. Upper management although acts like company culture is a intergal part of the company acts without regard to company employees.
The company downsized from 120 office employees to 80 and still shrinking due to failed ploys to increase investor interest. Because of that they are trying to cut cost by decreasing staff and outsourcing jobs. The company sold many of their properties at deductions to raise cash flow.
