Pros
The collaborative internal teams who work day to day and understand tough markets and the highs and lows. The reality of the hard work, grind and the wins in the market. People! I love Nicole, her empathy and down to earth approach is golden but not sure this is the reality as those above and below, are not delivering the message in the same way. Keep trying Nicole, the drip will take a long haul. Awesome new President!
Cons
The true REALITY of change! The LOSS in the new year! The new year has brought so much disappointment! So many great people left or were let go - Big producers, amazing trainers and lots and lots of really great people. The new brand does not reflect this new vision, direction and restructure. It is not a beautiful world in the LHH organization. The new compensation plans for ER really took everyone by surprise, the change in moral has it hard , and the lack of empathy is nothing I have ever seen in my 40 years of working. The leadership is turning a cheek. The company had such an opportunity to get new people up and running, give them a chance to shine on a comp plan that kept people happy and striving to build their business and relationships. The 10-20 year veterans are gone! The company consistently changes vision, plan, comp, again and again - hurts the blood sweat and tears of those who have given their all. Each year change after change, and now going back to the year 2000-2005 and reinventing the good old days when we should have evolved in 2025 and begin to trend to the the next step of greatness. Back to the Future movie started in 2025 at LHH! Grab your popcorn! Compensation COMMISSION DRAWS are old school and if you are shooting for GP dollars, then get paid off of what the company is getting paid on. Why change what was working! GREED! Announcement - If you hit a million dollars, you get a pair of LHH tennis shoes - wow! I think if you made a million dollars for the company, I think you can buy your own shoes and run! Systems they continue to push on employees to input data and make call after call, LHH needs to invest on 2 platforms and bridge them together. In addition, invest in/on reporting by design, create and generate reports that works for the teams. How about those, Joso boards, they are back and up and running! Invest in better tools and less of them. KPI drill down is more of a smack down - meeting after meeting to hear the same thing - If you are one to enjoy meetings and being micromanaged this is the company for you! Oh and by the way, you never meet HR the entire time you are with the company - very odd! I thought they are your support, the driver of culture and fairness.
