Micromanagement in Minneapolis

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people, pay, and benefits

Cons

The culture in Minneapolis is awful and driven by the team lead, however nothing is addressed because numbers are being met. There is constant turn over as a result of this culture. Be prepared to have no opinion and spend hours of your life going in non productive/ dead end circles to appease the team lead. This results in working long hours to get your actual work done. Everybody acknowledges and mocks the nonsense "work" behind closed doors, but again nothing is addressed. There is unhealthy competition in this office with no true sense of team, again driven largely by this one person who will twist anything to pin people against eachother in an effort to "hear" what she wants.

Pros

Culture, ability to work from home. Ability to take care of home. Announced , best place to work for mother’s years in a row. Large company, cafeteria on site.

Cons

They only worry about what brings money in and has a scope of only big customers. There vision is small minded. In my book , all customers matter not just your customers that bring in the most money. Old Mgmt, they’ve worked together for 20+ years, good luck on making a forward promotion, just lateral. They want you to be a robot and stuck in the same position and drain you to where you are working weekends. Also , stop being so cheap, man do they underpay.

Pros

Flexible work arrangements, talent/technical expertise, access to excellent R&D capabilities, fairly easy to get projects approved to work on

Cons

Constant restructuring that does not seem to bring about positive change, lack of any real innovation strategy, lots R&D projects but very little coming out of the pipeline, supposed to be a marketing-led company but doesn’t play out in the real day to day operations, no real investments in improving the culture or employee morale after all the restructuring, penny pinching is extreme, culture has become more and more fear based as employees have little job security, decision making has so many layers and things move very slowly as a result, even top talent has a hard time moving into other business units and so career development is challenging
