Low pay, toxic work environment, no growth

Business Outlook

Pros

Some benefits are good- decent health insurance

Cons

Pay is low, even within the same industry it’s one of the lowest. Growth opportunities are minimal, you need to have a boss that will advocate for you. Seems like this company only cares about their own reputation instead of their employees’ well being
