                Pros

                Nothing is good about this workplace. Nothing is even okay. I had a bad experience that I will mention below.

                Cons

                The work schedules were awful here. I had to work insane and brutal hours just to keep the management happy. It was ridiculous to be expected to work at a high pace all the time and take tons of work stress. It led to terrible health issues and made me regret my choice of working here.

                    Pros

                    If you are a creative person, you might like working here for a while. Just don't have high hopes for the future

                    Cons

                    The work ambiance here is the worst. No one is a friend, and everybody is fake and your enemy. People lie blatantly and are ready to blame you when something goes wrong. It's terrible to be a part of the blame games. BEWARE!

                      There’s a lot of flexibility. As the company grows there are multiple areas where you have the opportunity to train and learn more in. They have regular employee events to show their appreciation for our hard work and the team is friendly.

                      Cons

                      Nothing major has stood out to me as a con.

                      Senior Resource Manager

                      Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!
