A land of chaos - just left ...

Pros

Bought a bunch of companies with the hallucination of becoming a market leader; makes no sense.

Cons

Too many people who are dissatisfied. Management team members are fighting among themselves. No clear direction. Rumor is that the company is losing money heavily but not closing new accounts. Too many customers are unhappy with the acquisitions they made and looking to switch.

Pros

What can I say? Not too many pros. Except some of my coworkers who are really nice, this ship si going to sink purely due to technical reasons. Complete lack of leadership and vision where the company should go and what it should build.

Cons

Where can I start? First, they are crazy about acquiring companies to increase revenue as their own product zift123 was not selling. So, management decided to perfume on the pig. Literally. They acquired two competitors in less than a year. It brought in very different cultures and employee, but to make it worse three product platforms, which they are trying to transition over to one. A few people are asked to work on a future generation, but they are constantly getting pulled to fight bugs. Bugs are everywhere. If you are a good developer, you get pulled into fixing issues versus working on the real stuff. Also, as another employee said, management is not around most of the time. They have board meetings almost every month so most of the time management is preparing slides for review. Zero employee coaching. We havnt gone to any certification or training almost for a year. Plus the three platforms are causing a lot frictions amongst the employees who built them, but people are leaving. Their pay is okay, benefits are okay, but nothing great to hold you back. The options are given to a few people, and i have heard that they are worthless as the market is not growing fast ad they have raised a lot of money with the expectation of fast growth which is not happening. Its a bad situation.

Zift Needs New Leadership

Pros

Great product. Great employees.

Cons

Terrible leadership and senior management team. No one seems to know or care how to empower and motivate people. Employees are starving for leadership and direction but there is none. It does not help that most of the management team doesn't even live in NC and is never around or available.
