Pros

Salary was above average.

Cons

Tightly held family run company. When they make poor business decisions, it seems there must be a sacrificial lamb.

Pros

Like every company, can make a couple of good friends. But that’s not company.

Cons

High expectations with limited support. After a restructure I was moved into a more demanding role without a pay increase, and responsibilities regularly exceeded the original job description. We had to learn new systems and programs on our own, with formal training only starting four months later, while leadership pressured us for results that weren’t part of our role. Programs never fully worked, requiring constant feedback and awkward conversations with clients when things didn’t match up. There was no real team budget, and some work-related costs were covered personally. Team perks were minimal and at times misused by leadership. Ongoing cost-cutting meant fewer staff carrying heavier workloads, creating sustained pressure and high turnover. Recognition felt inconsistent, progression often seemed tied more to visibility and internal relationships than performance, and departing staff rarely received exit interviews, suggesting complaints were often ignored. What a pain of a company to work for.
