A long way to go
|
|
I suppose the telecommuting flexibility is nice as they don't have office space in NYC/NJ as was initially promised. The client services team is growing and they've hired some really great people.
|
The CRO left after 6 months and the dearth of leadership within the organization was exposed. Panel size and what data is being captured is not even close to what they tell clients, so that is a major issue. Goal is to move away from custom projects towards a platform based sale, but that platform is at least a year away from being client facing. Finally, they have a very unrealistic expectation of revenue growth YOY.

Put more time into developing and actually training new employees. Have a realistic expectation of product development, revenues and client interest.

Focus in getting the product right. You continue to look at short term success instead of getting the product right. You need a marketing differentiator to make an impact.

Lots of room to create, improve and manage processes. Project ownership. Top technology development and involvement. Work-life balance with telecommute opportunities.
|
Lack of management, organizational improvements, accountability and top down mentoring due to inability, inexperience or no skill set for it.

Clueless
|
|
Learned a lot, although most was self-taught. Upper management seldom knew how to do the things they requested of employees, so it forced us to take initiative.
|
Where to begin? So many high-salaried sales execs hired who didn't sell a single thing before being hired. When they did sell, they misrepresented our services so much that the delivery team had to scramble last minute to produce something as close as possible to what they described.
And what's with hiring so many VPs while laying off the worker bees? Way too many people in upper management with no one to manage.

Get your hands dirty. Understand the ins and outs of the product and how to do deliverables yourself before pushing it onto others. There are too many clueless execs who are so far removed from the actual groundwork process that they don't really know what the company is producing.

Honestly, I can't think of any
|
Where do I start. The company is clueless. They have been through 3 Ceos in 3 years. Upper management had no idea of the industry they work in. No idea of who their competitors are and no tenable business model.

The CEO should know the industry and hire upper management who also have worked in the industry for at least 5 years!
