Pros

- free food Mon-Thurs - health benefits - Game tickets (pre-COVID) - coworkers become good friends

Cons

- toxic leadership, from executive level down to the directors - unobtainable and overwhelming expectations - drama across all of the departments (felt like high school all over again) - HR acts like they care, but they only look out for leadership's best interests - frequent hypocrisy by leadership (even down to implementing COVID precautions, such as masks, but not wearing one themselves while walking through the building)

Pros

Working here has been an incredibly rewarding experience. I’m empowered to make my own decisions without being second-guessed, which allows me to truly drive meaningful change. The team I work with is phenomenal—collaborative, supportive, and passionate. I feel like I’m making a real impact every day and contributing to something that’s scaling in a big way. It’s rare to find a role where you have both autonomy and influence, and I’m grateful to be part of it

Cons

Staffing can be a real challenge. Entry-level pay isn’t very competitive, and some of the systems feel outdated and overly complex, which makes training harder than it should be. You wear many hats such as food catering and procurement can be especially demanding in busy seasons. The business is market-driven, the volume swings can be intense. It’s tough to staff appropriately without putting strain on the team. Still, if you’re someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys solving tough problems, there’s a lot of opportunity here.
