Not a friendly place

Pros

ETS Express is great for an entry level graphic designer who is looking to gain experience. It's similar to a data entry job, but you're using illustrator. So you'll learn key commands very quickly, and the ins and outs of the program.

Cons

If you're already an experienced designer stay away from here. They watch your every move, You're not allowed to leave your desk unless its during your approved breaks and lunch time. There is a lot of work here, and they expect you to be trained in a couple days, even though lots of the work is situational. Management isn't friendly and that has a ripple effect in the company. You can tell people are just generally unhappy to be working here.

A very hostile work environment

Pros

The owners provide bagels on the first of each month. Pay is decent to start and you may find camaraderie with other employees who are as miserable as you are working there.

Cons

Great place to work at if you're republican, don't recycle and enjoy being made to feel as though you are completely expendable. Other reviewers were right on the money with their reviews. Favoritism is huge with owners and management, but doesn't grant you a free pass. They will turn even on their favorites at the drop of a hat. No one has job security, everyone is expendable and they make sure you know it. Hard work is rewarded by adding more to your plate with little to no compensation. Promises of hiring additional help, bonuses, raises and promotions are made with little intention of keeping them. Most often what happens is the turnover rate is so staggeringly high that they can't logically keep those promises as they're constantly asking employees to take on more than they can handle to make up for the fact that no one is happy working there and would jump at the chance to leave. You will hear about people quitting, just not showing up or getting fired weekly, and for such a small company, it's alarming. Employees are expected to work overtime and weekends with little to no notice. You are expected to make ETS a priority and if you express the feelings that your family or home life are more important, don't plan on being employed for very long. Benefits aren't great and you can't even get them for more than a year after you work there as all employees go through a temp agency for 6 months or more and then must wait another 6 months to be eligible for benefits. You only get 7 days of PTO each year and that includes sick and vacation time. There used to be company picnics and company holiday parties, but they employees were made to feel as though they had a choice to have those parties or get bonuses. When in fact, not only were all the parties canceled, but bonuses were cut as well. Owners and managers have no filters. They say rude, offensive things with little to no regard to employee's feelings or rights. When an error is made, managers of each department prepare for war to get the blame passed to someone else. There is a huge divide between departments and managers will go out of their way to prove that another department and it's staff are useless, dumb and don't work as hard as their department. In addition, there is poor communication between management and owners and employees are often put in the middle of it. It creates an incredibly hostile work environment.

Pros

company lunches and monthly bagels. Good pay if your not sure what to do yet.

Cons

a lot of work, its sink or swim. And if you do well you're rewarded with more work and no raise to compensate. Bad benefits. Only 7 days off total per year.
