Pros

The best pros that came out of this job where my co-workers who always went above and beyond to assist me.

Cons

-Unprofessional Upper Management – Leadership lacks professionalism and effective communication. There is little to no support from upper management, and decisions often seem disorganized or poorly thought out. -Disorganized and Ineffective Training – The training process is chaotic, unstructured, and provides little to no real guidance. New hires are left to figure things out on their own, leading to confusion and frustration. -Unfair Treatment & Inconsistent Policies – Some employees are given the privilege to work from home while others are required to come in without any clear reasoning. Favoritism is evident, and policies are applied inconsistently. -No Clear Direction or Leadership – There is a severe lack of structure, leadership, and overall vision for employees to follow. Expectations are unclear, and there is no real sense of growth or development. -Toxic Work Environment – The combination of poor management, unfair treatment, and lack of support creates a negative and discouraging workplace. Employees often feel undervalued and unsupported. -High Turnover / Revolving Door – Due to these ongoing issues, the company struggles to retain good employees. There is no real effort to improve the work culture or address concerns, leading to continuous turnover. -Not a Good Fit for Career Growth – With no proper training, leadership, or fair treatment, this is not a place where employees can thrive. It is not an ideal environment for long-term career development or job satisfaction
