      TOXIC

      Pros

      Starter job. Fun if you want to feel like you're still living in a dorm.

      Cons

      pray for a manager who still acts with basic human decency, but it's not unreasonable to expect dysfunction, a lack of boundaries and professionalism, verbal abuse from the top down

      Overall a dissatisfying experience

      Pros

      The only positives are the food, vacation time and that it's pet friendly.

      Cons

      Where do I begin here? The first thing would be the environment, this workplace is the most quiet and introverted area you have ever seen. The people here are unfriendly and rude especially the management. They give you no room to grow and seem to have no trust in you. Overall it's a toxic work environment here and also the compensation is very poor.

      Pros

      HR department is working very hard and responsive. All administrative teams are friendly and helpful.

      Cons

      Antisocial environment, low paid; Too much micromanagement and unfeasible goals from the manager. Re-prioritizing tasks every day!
