Pros

It is a job, it will get you money, but when I was working at this place, there were very little positive and the work environment was absolutely trash. If you need a job for a year or two until you find something you love, then consider this position. The people around me were very kind until upper management disrupted the whole work day. The 5 star reviews that are blanket statements are definitely from HR or upper management trying to make the place look better. If someone really enjoyed working here, they would give it 3/4 at most...

Cons

The list is too long, my experience there was awful and draining on my mental health. I loved the people I worked with, but the toxicity from the top resonated within the whole building. The [not-CEO, but the other person] is just awful, my first experience with this person on my first day of the job was very unprofessional. When I did the job interview next to the main office, all I heard of screaming. People have adapted to say that yelling and screaming is just 'passion', but it's not - it's flat out awful and embarrassing. When the children take over, that is when the company will truly flourish.
