Pros
- From years of trauma-bonding I’ve made friends I will have for a lifetime
Cons
- After years of hiring hardworking, brilliant people that were driven by the mission, leadership pivoted completely and yet still expected people to give up their lives to work for an organization that had no direction let alone a focus on making the world better - The pay is so low, especially from how many hours they demand of you, it’s laughable - Management plays favorites - In 2020 there was a big layoff (much like other companies), with those that were left forced into “temporary” pay cuts. Months later, without a word on when salaries would be restored to what they should be, when asked, leadership stated in no uncertain terms that those of us that were left should be grateful we even had jobs. Many of us had to get second jobs/side hustles to cover the gap in pay while still grinding out 70+ hour weeks - Leadership called the company a family as a way to justify employees needing to work around the clock and making their jobs their lives. Yet when abrupt and unfair layoffs with barely, if any, severance, they would pivot and say “this is not a family, this is a business.”
