Pros

If you thrive under extreme pressure, this place will sharpen you fast. You'll master your metrics, develop a sixth sense for what's needed in the job, and become eerily efficient (no choice, lol). The sink-or-swim culture breeds resilience, and surviving each quarter feels like a personal victory.

Cons

High turnover isn't just a risk. It’s practically built into the system. Targets shift mid-cycle, KPIs are brutal, and “townhall meetings” often feel like a psychological experiment. Leadership operates on fear-based motivation, and favoritism is highly on point and very much prominent.

They go through branch managers like other companies go through cashiers.
