Nepotism - old boys club

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

There are great people here and the office is fun.

Cons

Nepotism and the old boys club runs rampant. If you are one of the chosen few, you can get away with anything and are allowed to punish and retaliate at will. Nothing will ever get done. If HR and management actually do eventually take action, it’s a year later. It’s a complete joke. If you’re female, don’t bother to try to get senior marketing officials to listen to you.

Pros

Benefits and wellness programs, volunteering opportunities!

Cons

No room for advancement. Need to start promoting within the company instead of offering higher positions to outsiders first. Focus more on the positive things about people instead of just the negative.

Keep unemployment on speed dial if you plan to work here

Pros

None, it’s all a bunch of lies

Cons

It’s an old boys and girls club. Unless you have a family member in upper management forget having any future there. I’ve never seen such extreme favoritism in my life, they refuse to update their systems yet if there’s any discrepancy they will 100% blame it on you. Their work-life balance is a joke, even after putting your heart and soul into your work they’ll turn around one day and decide to fire you for any excuse they can come up with. No formal training, they run on a sink or swim mentality. Only way to succeed is to throw coworkers under the bus. God forbid that you’re human and make a mistake, forget ever being able to redeem yourself they’ll start a paper trail and your days there are numbered. The biggest red flag was seeing employees who had been there for years on end randomly terminated for no reason.
