Disastrous internally, but good mission

Pros

Beautiful building and strong creative spirit amongst team members. Company is a PBC and provides good benefits (parental leave, health care) to employees.

Cons

Appallingly poor management and decision making, with plenty of belittling and undermining of hardworking teams. Insane turnover (like nothing I've ever seen before!) which creates instability and uneasiness. Consistently low morale and truly bizarre attempts to fix it. Low pay for the industry. Star employees not given opportunity to grow internally. Minimal career growth paths here. Sexism and bias are often swept under rug because it "wouldn't happen here." Immature working culture. Unprepared and inexperienced director-level management as well as HR. Cattiness and gossip are too often tolerated, leaving employees vulnerable. It's the sort of place you desperately want to love, but want to cry thinking of going to the office.
