Disorganized and Discriminatory

Pros

Flexible working hours, spend time in nature, good benefits

Cons

Management is completely disorganized and disengaged. They put people in charge who either don't want to be in charge, or are discriminatory towards their employees. The amount of racism I witnessed was ridiculous. No formal training.
