Pros

Base compensation, nicer office environment. Pockets of incredible team members and human beings.

Cons

Where to begin… Think of a circa 1960s cubicle office setup, where leadership can see your every move, telephones constantly ring, and the “good ol boys” reign supreme. Constant gossip. Strict dress code policy especially for men, actual verbal backlash from the CEO on down. No accountability from leadership. Working 12-14 hour days because everything is a priority (which means nothing is a priority, and productivity further suffers). Leadership is esoteric at best, not being open-minded or adaptive to current times.

Pros

none. There are literally ZERO pros in working here. Slowly everyone has morphed into corporate cronies that thrive in toxic culture.

Cons

This is by far the most ridiculous place i have ever worked. They drive good workers to the brink until they leave or you get fired. Quiet quitting is in FULL EFFECT HERE. They will lie to your face and will make up reasons they want you gone if they want you gone. The supervisor for this department is a JOKE and cannot even pass the required exams. The manager is clueless. I was subjected to a MONTHS long campaign to quiet quit and sticking it out made me physically ill. I cannot express enough how much to stay away from here. They expect complete compliance being available for mandatory OT needed based on their incompetence, So many good people have been driven out because of TOXIC MANAGEMENT. I never write anything like this, but its so bad that I felt that I had a moral obligation. They pay you TERRIBLY and know it. I had to visit a freaking food bank regularly! They are aware and dont care and will work you to the bone. You deserve better!
