Very entrepreneurial, which is a Pro, but also a necessity to get things done.
Cons
Very little support or resources - staffing, budgets (A/S, contractor, third party, etc.), financial analysts or insights. Archaic "9-5" work schedule, attendance is taken often.

Too many layoffs, don’t recommend if you want a long term career

Employees who don't socialize with the right people don't exist
RecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Gain experience quickly because they are understaffed and do not provide training. If you like Trump, you'd probably like Stephen. He appears to be on a similar vitamin regimen.
Cons
Beyond the constant layoffs, poor treatment of lower lever employees, upper management hires girl friends to not show up, a lot of harassment but no one to complain to because HR gossips to the people who are causing the problem. You can get a lot of information from the overly positive reviews here that blame employees for their own poor treatment. I can't really blame the company, but I've never heard so many racist/stereotypical comments in a Los Angeles workplace. No one complains because they'll be laid off or forced to quit. If you sue, they will likely pay you to be quiet and go away.
