Pros

some what good pay not the best,

Cons

Incentive bonus that entire SMG staff manditory/worked hard all year to get was taken away due to the budget cuts, two weeks before Christmas.We met and exceeded the company's financial goals, a large amount of responsibility placed on all staff who are then only noticed when something is "not done right" instead of a simple "thank you" ,Management has double standards poor/ lack of communication throughout the organization. Once you've done anything, you WILL get let go, however unemployment is well aware of what is happening..You will get it. Management should be given to "Qualified" persons, not based on seniority or popularity, must have a class to teach the perfect poker face

Pros

+The company is severely incompetent +Trauma-bonding with your co-workers will never be easier

Cons

-Toxic management culture: you'll frequently be brought into full-team meetings where the management will circle-jerk themselves, refuse to listen to team members, change random procedures, then ask why the workers want to unionize. -The company is SEVERELY incompetent: the company blows thousands of dollars on worthless things like their own in-house AI chatbot GPT clone and refuses to spend money on resources wisely while simultaneously complaining about the budget. -Abhorrently dishonest: They let me go after bringing me into a meeting to discuss "communication expectations." They then refused to allow two-party consent for recording, fired me for apparently "violating their standards of protocol", refused to allow me to stay to gather any evidence of their random firing, and refused to respond to any emails to confirm the nature of the meeting. This was ALSO the week before the management promised everyone on our team an annual raise. -Separation is a nightmare: Not only did they lie about the reason for separation before being busted by the state, but they also refuse to cash out PTO time, and HR is a nightmare to work with when confirming details for state services.
