Pros

It is hard to think of reasons to work here. There are opportunities to make money and grow your skills. However, you will be crushed under the weight of bad management.

Cons

Failure to train or onboard properly. No organization from the top down. No buy in from employees to support company mission. Extreme micromanagement for no reason. Gossip and bulls*** daily making the office a toxic place to work. Pride themselves on believing they are family friendly but don’t create an environment where good work/life balance is encouraged. Insist on forcing people to work from the office even though it is chaotic, loud, and inefficient. Have multiple meetings weekly that could be emails or not meetings at all to further micromanage and hurt productivity. Company as a whole is not forward thinking or process improvement minded. Working here was hell. Nepotism reigns. There are several people who make decisions about hiring/firing based on personality alone and “fitting in” like a bunch of mean girls in high school. Quality of work and dedication is not seen, appreciated, or compensated. Run away, far far away. Glad I got out. Their bad treatment of employees is reflected in their bottom line and high turn over.

Pros

You will be surrounded by some of the most hardworking and dedicated people in the industry. I credit my peers who continue to share their knowledge and expertise without hesitation. We have a reputation of making things happen regardless of the situation and if not for the “tested and proven” team we have, this would be difficult to achieve.

Cons

It’s a thankless, demanding job. It’s a bonus if you’re a self-starter. People will leave you alone for as long as you produce results but be prepared for lack of feedback. There are still some members here who are not very good at providing immediate feedback but quick with assumptions.
