A drunk bull in this proverbial China shop - Information Technology Curative, Inc. Employee Review

I could write a book of blunders on this place. That's not hyperbole. I stayed as long as I did out of a genuine morbid curiosity to see just how long Curative could keep making bad decisions while trying to expand the business at breakneck pace. We all reach our breaking point. I'm gone now, but they've stayed the course. Only with much less staff due to continued layoffs as the company sheds it's original business model in an effort to try and disrupt healthcare. A lofty goal for a company seemingly fueled solely by incompetence. You've read the other reviews no doubt, and I will echo the negative sentiment and glaring issues mentioned previously. My on-boarding experience was effectively direction-less after I signed the offer. I chalked that up to growing pains, since they were hiring rapidly. But, from discussions I have had even up until I left, that didn't get much better. I worked in an office rather than out in the field. It was a mixed bag for IT there, certainly. Although that wasn't unexpected. What was unexpected was my first manager who had issues with his soft skills, often issuing curt or incorrect replies to employees. Many of whom were on-boarding. Among his many transgressions, he could be heard in meetings saying, "You're salaried and you get paid all the time, so you should be working all the time." This all while his boss, the director, sat there in silence. He was let go, but not for that or any of the other reasons that justified it long before he finally got the boot. The second manager I had a chance to interview and voted "nay" in our round-table discussion to choose a candidate. It did not take long to know they made a mistake moving forward with him. He is challenging to describe in words befitting the tone of this review. This person offered a different negative management experience, which was equally intolerable. Lots of big talk and showboating with little results. Often, his decisions hurt the team more than helped. For someone supposedly having years of experience in help desk management, it was curious to find out that the techs he was managing had to make his metric reports for him. The data contained within was most often incorrect, but neither he nor his boss could figure that out, so they looked impressive on a slide deck with fancy charts. Good enough for the director. It's very telling of his true character and skill set, now that I look back on it. He was also a fan of making inappropriate comments to anyone who stuck around a conversation with him long enough to listen to his feeble, flagrant anecdotes. This seemed especially true with women, based on multiple observations.
