Incompetent leadership, disappearing benefits, every day a new idiot in London is making it harder to do your job - Marketing Euromonitor Employee Review

- Things like work from home were cut without explanation made work-life balance very difficult. - Health insurance was cut because London is cheap and doesn't want to keep pace with rising US insurance premiums. You better pray the ambulance takes you to an in-network hospital if you ever get hurt. - The VP of marketing is the owners wife. She works part time. She knows PR but not you know, other parts of marketing, including that part that’s kind of a big deal now—the internet. - I saw a lot of really smart people leave Chicago because of bad leadership from London. There's a lot of dead weight in London and Chicago is always making up for it or circumventing idiots to get things done. Promotions go to friends, not talent. - Sales goals were ridiculously high and we weren't given the tools to meet them. Missed our bonuses in 2011 despite 40% revenue growth in our channel. - Turnover is so high that managers have been asked to stop sending emails out to Chicago when people quit (and managers have been asked to write positive Glassdoor reviews to balance out all the negatives). - The owner is extremely rude. - Web filtering really makes the internet slow. Even the IT guys agree and hate it. It all comes from London. And tons of websites are blocked, even though some of them were required for me to do my job. - The London development team is iceberg slow. -The tech leadership is cowardly. They're so afraid of a bad project blowing up that they do everything in house, and they do it poorly and late. They refuse to make decisions or take responsibility for anything. Are these the the types of people that you want to work for?
