Pros

Work from home so I can avoid my petty, vindictive manager.

Cons

Toxic culture. Only want to reward those who are willing to kiss up to their managers. Cost over quality, profits over people. This is the only way they know how to keep the stock price from sinking even lower.

Decent pay. Not much else.

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
