Pros

nice, modern office space; lots of natural light.

Cons

- Work culture did not promote enough diversity and inclusion in the workplace. The atmosphere gave off a fraternity/sorority feel. - This office location seems to be a more sales-oriented/focused working environment. Any other departments beyond that did not hold the same value. - Leadership/upper management was mediocre at best, non-existent at worst and severely lacked in engaging with employees. - Employees that carried seniority and a certain personality type were heavily favored and were given more value. - Products were OK; however, customers were consistently being deceived of pricing and any changes made to products or subscriptions were never communicated, resulting into massive cancellations and huge account losses. - No formal training in place, be it for on-boarding/new hires or a new billing system being implemented. Training is so foreign in this company. - Colleagues were only friendly to a caliber of their own, adolescents.

Pros

Free lunch twice a week. Also free coffee.

Cons

Working hard and putting in overtime is never enough. Constant pressure to perform harder and do more with no appreciation.
