Pros

Some of the people you work with are really awesome and fun, showcases can be entertaining, good for people who pretty much have no lives and all they want to do is work to further their career.

Cons

Management showed a total lack of respect and no appreciation for work put in. Micromanaging is enough to drive someone mad, especially if their manager dials in remotely. Expectations are unrealistic, and they are not flexible. Even as salary, you have to clock in and clock out. Extremely outdated business model and poverty line pay for the industry. Rigid environment, extremely right wing. Feels more like you are on a nanny cam while at work than anything else. Not understanding of work-life balance unless you are high enough in the totem pole, otherwise you are considered disposable. I have never felt so demoralized in my life but I kept at it with a smile on my face to provide for my family. I would never in a million years recommend someone work here.

We don't believe that this employee's experience is typical of what the vast majority of employees currently working here would say. We continuously hear how people speak glowingly of the culture and the company's approach to fostering a work environment where all employees are valued.
