Salary did not reflect the amount of work you put it in

When it comes to the cons, there are many of them. First of all, someone looking at this organization to build a career should avoid it at all costs. A job description posted on a job board should not be believed. I went in thinking the role would be marketing and content focused (hence why I applied to be a content specialist), but when I was brought onboard, I quickly learned it was more of a customer service and quality assurance role where I would review articles written by other people and then have to make phone calls to publishers around the U.S. and Canada letting them know why content had to be removed. Furthermore, these publishers were often times rude and abusive to internal employees (they were more like franchisees). The internal management would not support the lower-level employees either because the publishers are these little magazines made them money. This was always discussed internally where my direct co-workers, who had more years within the organization, would let me know what publishers were okay versus ones that would yell and degrade people. It was unnecessary drama and created a toxic environment. Secondly, management was non-existent. My direct supervisor was only on-site (everyone else had to work in the office) I believe 3 or 4 times in the span of an entire quarter. No leadership. In times I wanted to work from home, I was told I couldn't. It was a double standard. Thirdly, when it came to Glassdoor and Google Reviews, I was specifically directed by management, who were directed by the executive team, to go out and post fake, 5-star reviews to inflate the review scores. It's dishonest to how the organization actually functions.
