Great...until the mass firing by a 5min Teams Meeting

Data entry specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They compensated well for a night time job, and the atmosphere is generally people friendly.

Cons

The higher corporate management team is not as connected with their employees as they want you to believe. It was obviously a good idea for them to have a surprise mass firing in the span of five minutes with a flimsy excuse for it, while not having HR present. Then once the meeting was over, they decided to cut everyone's access before we could fully absorb what we were to do next with HR. Despite having spent well over a decade with the company, it was abundantly clear that we're replaceable.
