Horrible, horrible place to work

Pros

Yumbra Cafe Great team, great food

Cons

Where to begin. The management is awful, they yell at you and each other, they have no respect for the employees or each other, they talk trash about whoever isn't in the room. They have no direction, constantly change their minds what to do, how to do it and when things go wrong the lowest level employee will be the scapegoat with management saying the employee should have known better.

Pros

-You meet some great people there -cafe on site -great discount

Cons

This is the most missed managed company that I have ever worked for. Senior management are never available to give a definitive answer and all have a different opinion. The amount of re-work is incredible

Agree with all posts - stay away if you respect yourself

Pros

Certainly the shorter list. Slight advantages include your average benefits, a gym you'll rarely use, on site (paid) food is delicious and the free coffee is.... free. It's a great place to work looking in from the outside and they do a good job of making you think that during the interview process. You'll be happy at first.

Cons

This company sails an extremely outdated ship. There are simply too many "Cons" to list. From an out of control, bordering on abusive, ranting CEO to a sheer lack of direction - employees are treated with very little (read: no) respect. Agree with the countless other reviews that advise job seekers to run in the opposite direction. From where I stood the employee turnover is out of control for a company of this size which should say it all. This includes nearly the entire HR team.
