"I worked for LocalEdge for over 10 years. It was once a great place to work where employees got recognized and rewarded for doing a good job. In the last 5 years it has become too corporate and all freedom, bonuses and incentives have been slowly stripped away. Now, employees are numbers and no one is rewarded or recognized for their efforts. Constantly pushed to hit performance numbers and micromanaged. It is now a horrible place to spend the day. I do not recommend LocalEdge to anyone."
