They have to realize the way for them to get rich is by PPS appreciation. I suppose they are just working on growing the business.

“Jagged Peak constantly changes their focus because they are a struggling company. ”

Current Employee - Project Managerin Tampa, FL

I have been working at Jagged Peak full-time (more than an year)

Pros

If you are a new in your field, you may gain a few months of experience in your area, other areas and realize what kind of corporation you do not want to work for.

Cons

Jagged Peak has a very high turnover rate, is unstable and burdens its workers with unrealistic workloads.
Organizational culture is always a function of the CEO and his executives, but it is absent here. Whatever they do, however they behave, sends messages down through the organization. Executive affairs, talk of a coup, partner mistrust over corporate spending, and self motivated decision making by the CEO may make you feel insecure about your position.

“Lower level employees are faceless numbers to executives and are treated like pawns in a chess game against each other and to clients”.
“Basically you’ll be fighting real hard to impress a new client and lose an existing client. Jagged Peak is very disorganized, has no respect of rules or regulations and confidentiality. The rules change as they go and decide who is excluded from them and who is not.
Getting caught up in the hypocrisy of Jagged Peak may damage your career more then build it.

Advice to Management

"Make up your mind what you want to do, where you want to compete." Jagged Peaks focus on "activity metrics" and "growth expectations" over "team morale" creates a "hostile work environment." Stop asking employees to lie to clients ignoring strong convictions to do the right thing and give the clients what they are actually paying for.
