Pros

Having lots of holidays off Working remotely

Cons

This is by far the worst company I’ve ever worked for. The micromanaging was to the that it was affecting my mental health. I was supposed to be on a high-level project, but we were always treated like absolute garbage. Personal lives were spoken about in front of other coworkers. Mistakes or performance were also spoken about in front of others. Lots of responsibilities from leadership were passed down to staff. Me and one other coworker were responsible for essentially all of the work of the entire project, with no raise. We were expected to be in a meeting, whether that was teams or Zoom the entire day and whether there was work to do or not. Screens had to be shared while working at all times even after working on the project for two years. QCs were not chosen at random like they were supposed to be. They were selected only if there was a mistake (which were very few and far in between) and when there was a mistake, we were pushed in a corner to explain ourselves. We were told that there could be absolutely no errors. I get making no errors to an extent, but making no errors at all, at all times when working for the project for such a prolonged period of time is physically impossible. My coworkers and I were in tears multiple times on multiple occasions due to not only the micromanaging, but also the way we were spoken to. To give context, we were told that we were basically incompetent and had no business being at our current position. Since leaving this job, I have had to rewire my brain to think a different way because it felt like I was being mentally abused. Overall The FL DFS project is run poorly and employees are treated like prisoners.
