Pros
Acquired experience in a fast-paced environment, swiftly developing resilience. Additionally, had the privilege of collaborating with large clients.
Cons
The level of micromanagement within this company is truly astonishing. Autonomy is a rare luxury, as your day is planned by someone else, down to the specific hours of the day. What's more, if a task requires more time than initially planned, you're obligated to provide detailed justifications- like being back in school. Tasks often come your way without much recognition or even basic acknowledgment. Abrupt removal from projects is also common, leaving your mental well-being compromised and casting doubt on your professional abilities. The expectation to work overtime without compensation or time off is the norm. Don't expect great salary reviews. Even when they do occur, they fall woefully short of keeping pace with the rising cost of living. The so-called 'cost of living bonus' feels like a mockery in the face of the real challenges posed by the increasing cost of living crisis. This predicament affects everyone, not solely those who dedicate their efforts to the cause at Social Chain through extended working hours. Burnout inevitably becomes a part of your journey with Social Chain. This stems from their practice of not replacing the workforce after departures, pursuing large clients despite being aware of their inability to meet the demands, and placing a heavy reliance on employees to put in overtime hours.
