Pros

Good pay. Work from home.

Cons

Horrible, ever changing management. I was given a new boss - my fourth in six years - and they buried me trying to make a name for themselves. Never leaned on my experience, hired vendors for parts of my job I enjoyed without asking and then said I wasn’t engaged. Total joke. The brand team is a toxic mess led by an insecure brand manager who thinks she is a creative director. Fun fact - months after leaving she’s doing all of the things she made me correct and refine over and over and over.
