Sorry, money can't buy competence - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij ELM Learning

The importance of providing feedback is to share concerns and help improve organizations through radical candor. Providing truths in a professional and compassionate manner. As a company, and as leaders we are always willing to listen to concerns and criticisms. As leaders it is also our responsibility to dig through the aggressive anger in some messages to find the truth. ELM was purchased by five owners including myself and my son. Over the past five years we have invested in the start up and in the building of ELM. The CEO does not oversee sales, we have had a sales director for the past year. Our sales team pay is similar to industry standards and their training is very organized and involves the development team through hands on learning. As with all start up companies we have had to continually develop our training programs each year. Last year we implemented our Guidance System which provides for all positions, on-boarding, training, and management development. On a monthly basis we conduct our “All Hands” meetings to provide open discussions and share information to ELM in all three cities. We are proud to say that a lot of our team members have taken great vacations to all parts of the world including, Australia, Africa, South America, Europe, etc. It is unfortunate that when owners take vacations it is “jet setting.” I believe we all would agree that everyone deserves a work life balance. Our managers have worked hard to create the organization we have today. The strain of scaling a company has been recognized and this spring we have added an industry experienced Vice President of Operations in San Diego to help with the increasing business demands. We find the name calling “class clown” to be a personal attack. We do not have class clowns, everyone has value in our organization including the author of this posting.
