ERPi Reviews

This is a company run by a bunch of guys who started it because they like team sports and wanted to have that feeling again. This does not lend for great management. This is not a sports team, it's a business, made up of people who have real careers that they care about, and that does not seem to be understood. The cliques and favoritism are rampant and obvious, more obvious in some markets than others. Senior management has no idea of what's going on in the trenches. The turnover rate is climbing. No one in senior management can have a real discussion . The sexism borders on overt. The good ol' boys club is alive and well. People aren't promoted on merit and performance, but rather favortism and a VP pushing hard enough. (do you know anywhere else where you can be kicked off a project AND promoted?) Sr management can be offensive, say whatever they want, and there are no repurcussions. The direction keeps changing but there's no plan. RPL anyone?

It is reaffirming to me that there are others at this firm that feel the same way as I do. I believe that the recent review titled "Post Iceberg Titanic", though harsh, is truthful. I have often overheard conversations between staff expressing their frustrations with where the company is headed. In the past, I've tried to communicate to the staff that upper management has the best intentions in mind. However, I am starting to lose hope. I left my previous employer with a belief that ERPi has created a unique culture in consulting. But as time went on, it seems that the senior leaders have shifted their focus to the bottom line and not what's best for maintaining the culture it had previously established. It has been a rough year for ERPi. We've missed our financial goals and we've had a hard time securing contracts. I think us managers and senior leaders could have done a better job communicating this to the staff. The message has often times been "we are doing well, exciting opportunities are coming down the pipeline" when it is in fact not the full truth. I hope that moving forward, the corporate office can turn this company around. If not, I'm fairly certain we will experience an even high turnover rate in 2019.
