Pros

Friendly colleagues (pretty much everyone except the CEO)

Cons

Extremely toxic/stressful environment. CEO humiliates employees in front of everyone to see and hear. Do yourself a favor and trust the reviews. The CEO is a disaster to work with to put it at best and it is impossible to avoid interaction with him since it is a very small company. He is micromanaging, making it impossible to make any sort of decision by yourself. He will be involved in every little step of the process. He does not trust the employees to do their job. CEO has no respect for anyone and screams at employees constantly. He has no regards for his employees' well being whatsoever and treats everyone like they are replaceable any second. Steven Haimowitz is not a respectable man at all. Due to horrendous leadership, company morale is non-existent. People initially join the company with high motivation but eventually end up walking around the office like zombies regretting ever joining this horrible company within weeks. CEO does not understand that an employees performance/drive is affected by leadership. You will be treated like trash yet still will be expected to perform at your best. Very high turnover rate. You will literally notice there is an entire new group of people each year comparing pictures from its annual Christmas parties. You will often find employees making jokes whenever there is a new hire, betting how long they will last in the company. Countless employees have actually quit without any notice within days of being hired. No official HR, which means there's a lot of unprofessional behavior that takes place without any repercussions.

Pros

Hybrid schedule and bagel day monthly

Cons

Took this role in the hopes to stretch and work a different aspect of clinical education. There were several red flags while going through the interview process, which I discounted. However, they were all real. The leader would rather criticize and insult you rather then develop and coach you, has no problem ridiculing you in front of the entire organization. Micromanages everyone and has frequent arguments with team members on the daily 5 pm huddle call where every single day everyone has to explain what they are doing as there is no trusts. No transparency to the CEOs plans on how to grown the organization but yet wants everyone to act as if they have skin in the game. When leadership feels you are not working optimally they will force you to send daily emails explaining what you spend your time doing. If there is any does feedback sent back- you better answer it 1st thing or you will be criticized for that. The CEO micromanages everything and then complains there is no time to complete work. Leadership expects everyone to work 7 days a week and at all times of the day. My advice is you can do better then working here.
