Pluspunten

Excellent business model in the right hands. Client retention is above par and the people that work here, for the most part, are a great group.

Minpunten

The current leadership is not capable of growing this business beyond $50 Million when in fact it should be well over a $250 million media company by now. Horrible training and development practices have turned this model into a telemarketing boiler room and the prospect pool is well aware of this. Lower level management, for the most part, are merely metric driven with little ability to grow their teams professionally. Their guidance: Make more phone calls. The hiring process is stringent and once on board you are made to feel as though you know nothing by people who essentially know nothing

Pluspunten

They are a very professional company to work for. When you walk into the company's building it is clean and professional looking. It makes me proud to work there. All departments work great together and the departments support the sales group in every way possible. The company's products work and therefore very easy to stand behind and sell. I would suggest to anyone to work for this company if possible.

Minpunten

Sitting at a desk all day is different to me and can be uncomfortable at times.

Pluspunten

At GlobalSpec, you work with very smart people to further the development of a company that started as a really great idea. With few exceptions, everyone wants to be there and works hard toward the common goal. Lots of fun outings / project completion lunches / BBQs to keep it fun. Very flexible hours, very open communication (you can go gripe to a Sr. VP should you feel inclined), intimate atmosphere. Free coffee and fruit in the break room. Lots of breathing room to further your career and own project interests. Some teams have a great tight-knit atmosphere, while others are more fragmented. Ideas are king here: the company's always innovating, and it's very difficult to get bored. In most positions, if you have an idea, you're given the freedom to run with it and develop it. Low stress.

Minpunten

Pay is subpar for certain positions. The company has grown little in the past few years. I second the earlier comments that this should be a $100 million+ company, but revenue has stalled around $45m. There are a core group of slackers, some of whom have few qualifications and have been with the company for 10+ years, and these folks drag others down a bit. Being an open and laid-back company, though, these people will never be cleaned out. Some managers and senior execs seem to have been promoted based on longevity and have little to no functional management experience.
