Pros

Beautiful office space, free snacks and drinks, some genuinely nice people, and interesting industry

Cons

I would not recommend working here; not even for my worst enemy! Management is very unstable and unprofessional. I’ve never seen a CEO yell and curse at their employees. It’s very shocking and sad that some have just dealt with this inappropriate behavior for YEARS. Instead of recognizing and fixing problems, it’s covered up by catered lunches and random office events. There’s also favoritism, and it’s like a high school environment (lots of gossip; very pathetic) It’s unfortunate because the company’s mission is great, but if management does not change, it will be very difficult to retain employees and grow.

Not a place to build a Career

Pros

Nice professional/casual work environment. Many little office parties and celebrations. Pay and Benefits were good. Some staff members were great to work with.

Cons

While encouraging Team building, this office has cliques and 'pets' that prevent a team atmosphere. Training on in-house system is not structured. This is purely an 'inside the box' company that fails to timely review and implement new compliance issues. e-mails are continually monitored and staff members do not own or take responsibility for what they do. Not a place to build a career.

Pros

Solid work processes with clear direction on how to do your job. Open door policy when it comes to management, although not always reciprocated with compassion and a willingness to help.

Cons

President is known for yelling and cursing at her employees, specifically the sales team. Passive aggressive emails accusing employees of putting water in communal soap dispensers. Mandatory kitchen/bathroom/trash duty for employees who were not hired to be janitors. No room for advancement in certain departments. Micromanaging is a common practice amongst certain departments. PTO is often and spontaneously put on a freeze so employees cannot request leave for an indefinite amount of time.
