The next startup to not make it - Marketing Consultant Fortimize Employee Review

Hi! First I'd like to take the time to thank you for writing us this feedback. It's important for us to understand how we can further improve our internal processes to ensure everyone of our employees is happy and on the path to success and personal fulfillment. That said, we'd like to thank you for your services as they were/are appreciated. Our internal team utilizes many tools, Google Docs, being one of them. We use this for collaborative purposes alongside other tools such as Salesforce, Confluence, Zoom, Slack, Proprietary Forecasting Applications, and a full arsenal of products and tools we use to keep the team informed and up to date. Being that you were straightforward in your ability to utilize some of our proprietary tools, we implemented processes and trainings for our employees tool kit to ensure everyone has the ability to learn and master them. In some cases, it can become challenging for some to grasp the concepts within a reasonable amount of time. We believe in offering opportunity for employees to run for their goals and tackle issues head on with self betterment and of course internal trainings and mentoring. Aside from formal training, we always look to hire candidates who are eager to jump into a new area with confidence knowing that they'll be supported internally with trainings and mentorship, but there is a degree of ownership the candidates take on. We can provide all the training and mentorship possible, but if the employee isn't willing to do their own exploration, it will be a tad more challenging. I apologize for the way in which you were informed of your termination. It's definitely not the manner in which it is conducted on a normal basis. This is also something which we've taken back to our C-Suite and off the back of it, implemented a far more rigid and required protocol for the release of our employees. The new standard will allow former employees to understand exactly what areas needed improvement and the clarity they needed in order to understand why they have been terminated. Additionally, we include plenty of opportunity for questioning and conversation to ensure everyone is on the same page prior to parting ways. In regards to our PTO Model, our current standard is 3 weeks paid vacation, which also comes with 5 sick days and 1 volunteer day off to give back to the community. We are also working towards a far more robust PTO policy (unlimited PTO). This will be rolled out within the calendar year. When it comes to your advice, we've taken it to heart and brought on a good amount of executives and high level consultants to ensure we have a strong organization and setting up the company and it's employees for success. Again, I thank you for your time, effort, and feedback. It will only make us better! From the Fortimize Family, we wish you the best of luck in the future!
