You can't make this stuff up
|
|
Your coworkers are some of the smartest, funniest, kindest people you'll ever meet. You'll learn about things that you never thought you'd get the chance to explore.
|
The CEO is a narcissistic, egomaniacal, womanizing, politically-charged garbage human being. He can't keep on one project for more than a second, and because of that, neither will you. He's constantly putting holes in his own boat and firing/demeaning people for not fixing them fast enough.
The company is going downhill fast. If you want a payout from a failing business, you've found it.

Time is a Flat Circle
|
|
Let's start by introducing a key challenge ushered in by the philosophical notion of eternal recurrence: as one begins to ruminate on the idea of repeating every immutable moment of their life, all the joys and all the pain, over and over, forever and ever, how do they learn to overcome the inevitable sense of dread that is sure to follow? Where does one acquire the skills to outwrestle the pernicious spirit of gravity, to come so far as to crave this endless cycle, to never desire anything more from it? If only there were a microcosm to serve as a kind of training ground…
Enter CATS, a tiny Minneapolis software company where all employees work closely with a CEO who changes his mind 150 times per day as the result of a fitful affair with reason. By the constant frequency at which he changes his mind, time spins as an infinite loop where you as employee can pick up and put down the same few projects again and again. You can turn pro at answering redundant, perennial questions and shrinking yourself to brash, demeaning retorts. You can come to celebrate that anything you do will be interrupted by the next gut-driven distraction of the day. Any gains you manage to make will go unnoticed, under-appreciated, or soon down the drain. In essence, you can commune with Sisyphus despite no mortal offense.
All of this, of course, to attain amor fati.
|
The CEO displays little capacity to listen to others and would seem to consider this a virtue. He employs his staff for a listening proxy through which he can debate himself ad nauseam with bullish, bad-faith, politically-charged arguments. He routinely reminds his employees of how they are underpaid, of how he is not, and of how he could outperform them in 5 minutes, in his sleep, or both. Along the way, workers may be charmed by talk of performance bonuses and profit sharing. These will not come to pass, for the legacy of CATS will amount to one endless, unnerving monologue swirling the void of any earnest employee retention program.
While the current CEO is running the ship, my advice is to steer clear your own.

Excellent opportunity with a company that cares for its empoyees: flexible work arrangements, warm work environment, benefits for temporary workers, latest CAD technology, 3D Printing, friendly/family type relationships. Best Engineering Staffing Firm I have ever worked for!
|
None that I can think of.

Core Consulting is awesome!
|
|
They helped me advance my $18/hr job into a 70k/yr career. Couldn't have made it here without them!
|
I started before there was health insurance and a 401k, but now they have it so it's all good.

Keep up the friendly communication and don't grow the company too large that you loose communication with the people that make the company money.

Worst Company Ever
|
|
Recruitment staff has big ego. The manager of the area lacks professionalism and is full of lies.
|
Never keep promises. I was offered a rate revision at the end of the 3 months contract. Recruiter and his manager do not return phone calls.

Challenging and Fun Place to Work!
|
|
I've been working at CATS Software for a little less than a year. It's an exciting place to work, filled with fun people. It's definitely a growing company, so we're always brainstorming ideas on how to make our applicant tracking system even better. The culture is great and allows us to keep our minds fresh. Since it is a smaller company, we all know each other pretty well and sometimes get to enjoy a fun happy hour together. Our CEO is always accessible, and everyone listens to each other ideas. Another positive note, the office is expanding!
|
I haven't experienced any cons working here! Although we haven't experienced a company field trip yet.

It's great to work here! Working at a smaller company has its rewards and in my opinion, much more exciting then working with in a big corporate environment.

CORE Consulting has a very fun environment to work in. They allow their employees to be their own boss and rarely micro-manage.
|
If you are not a somewhat autonomous and driven person, then this may not be the best environment for you.
