Pros

Decent comp structure & opportunity for growth.

Cons

The entire company revolves around dishonesty, manipulation, favoritism, judgement, sex, drugs & alcohol. The turnover rate is remarkable, I have never seen more GOOD, hardworking employees leave an environment because of their hostile co-workers, poor management, and manipulative senior leadership. Senior leadership has absolutely no professionalism. They encourage unprofessional behavior, make consistent derogatory and sexual comments to their employees, encourage drug use, and manipulate new graduate employees into believing this is a "normal work environment". The "mean girl(s)" in the office have driven out more employees than they have brought in, and continue to be praised for their outrageous behavior (maybe it's time to get rid of the problem).
