Avantages

You will have the opportunity to try a wide variety of things. The people you work with are amazing and you will quickly come to find them as more than just coworkers.

Inconvénients

There are many cons and it is hard to put them all into words. Top-level management and leadership is a major problem. The CEO doesn’t know or understand the industry, the CFO is basically running the company due to a void in the CEO’s abilities, HR is distrusted by all. Worst of all, everyone knows these things but they continue to make excuses and say things aren’t that bad or that it’s just a few disgruntled employees causing the problems. There is a reason why the company struggles to keep talented individuals. The company has the ability to be great but management lacks the desire to enact necessary changes to make that happen.

Thank you for calling out the wonderful relationships you can make working at Booksource. We really do have a great staff! We have also implemented an anonymous employee survey platform - TINYpulse to allow employees to voice their opinions about decisions being made, culture, new ideas, suggestions, etc. This allows us to listen to employees in a whole new way and take immediate action on what they are saying. I am happy to report that there have been a lot of great initiatives for the organization and our culture as a result. Your feedback has been provided to the executive team.

Avantages

Before this company was purchased by Mackin it was a wonderful place to work. In 2024 the CEO gave up and decided to retire and sell the company which put every employee in a vulnerable position and ultimately into an extremely toxic culture at Mackin.

Inconvénients

* Following the acquisition by Mackin Educational Resources, there appeared to be a shift in company culture and employee experience. * Communication from leadership often felt limited, leaving employees uncertain about organizational direction and future plans. * Benefits and employee perks were reduced or eliminated over time. * Decision-making was highly centralized, which sometimes limited autonomy and slowed progress. * Departments experienced increased oversight and less independence than in the past. * Many systems and processes felt outdated, creating inefficiencies and making it difficult to modernize workflows. * Employee feedback did not always appear to influence organizational decisions. * Workforce reductions occurred with little advance notice, contributing to concerns about job security. * Repeated workforce reductions resulted in remaining employees inheriting significant additional responsibilities. Many employees effectively performed the duties of two positions while compensation remained unchanged. There were no meaningful salary increases, and employees did not receive cost-of-living adjustments for more than two years.
