Pros

The unprofessional office culture made it really easy to stop caring about your work, and that made for a stress-free environment.

Cons

So many downsides that a lot of the previous reviews have covered, so I won’t repeat it all, but I’ll add that all the negative reviews are accurate. I’ll also add that the COO is completely oblivious to everything that’s going on downstairs. Everybody is miserable, nobody has the time, leadership or motivation to do their best work. “50% effort is fine” is VERBATIM what my former manager regularly encouraged the team with, on top of promoting the use of AI design to a bunch of designers. This is not the place to be if you’re a creative, as creativity is discouraged. There is no leadership, no HR, and don’t get me started on the IT situation.

Cons

• High expectations paired with very low compensation • No 401k until after your first full year of employment • Constant budget cuts • Lack of professionalism across leadership • Rampant favoritism • Lack of consistency — expectations and priorities change regularly without clear communication • Little to no support from management • Required to be in the office four days a week • Poor office hygiene — bathrooms often dirty and poorly maintained One of the biggest issues during my time here was management behavior. I worked under a manager who was openly rude and condescending, made inappropriate jokes, and gossiped negatively about both coworkers and people outside of work. She once made an offhand, offensive comment about an IT team member being on the spectrum. Despite claiming she wanted the office to feel “inclusive and fun,” her behavior routinely made people uncomfortable — something she even admitted to jokingly. Unfortunately, there’s no formal HR department to escalate concerns to, so accountability is essentially nonexistent.
