Pros

There were still some good people worth working with before I left. That was a bright spot. Good natured humans that worked hard but respected and appreciated you. Working remote is also a bonus but that coin has two sides.

Cons

The CMO is awful. Long gone are the days of having a person in charge who truly cared about their team. I'm not the only person to leave, if they weren't laid off in 2020 (during a pandemic), they left of their own accord because the toxicity level exceeds treatment plants. Also - don't let the diversity and inclusion fool you. The marketing team couldn't not have been farther from that.

Unprofessional & Dishonest Management

Pros

- Remote Working - Friendly Colleagues - Health Benefits and 401k match (Though definitely not the best I've ever had)

Cons

- Dishonest management. The CEO and CFO will tell you how great the financials are and then with moments later your managers will start to reduce headcount. - Very tight on company travel, company credit card spends, and home office supply purchases. - Unprofessional. Anytime new leaders come in, they immediately clean house and "replace/reorg" the team. You'll be picking up the slack for lost employees and they won't replace so then your working double the work. - Pay is NOT competitive Look at their competitors, they are paying / offering more than double for the same role

Pros

Benefits, vacation time off, quick interviewing process

Cons

Too much work load on one employee to handle multiple responsibilities! They will bring you in for as cheap as possible and then they will let the contractors go, so that money can be saved. Then they will make you take up all the work and over burden you without little or no training. You will have to figure out everything on your own which wastes time and energy. Doesn’t make the work enjoyable even if you really try to. They will work you like a dog every single day without any appreciation. Only the senior and favorites get recognition while the hardworking lower employees are looked upon as mere laborers. Go somewhere else where you think your worth will be recognized. This isn’t the place. You will feel like you are nothing but a servant to them. They want to bring in smart people for less money and treat them like unworthy candidates.
