Pros

-The company as a whole is making an effort to meet modern standards and be progressive. -Most colleagues are great to work with.

Cons

-There is a major lack of respect from management. They are very untrustworthy and everything boils down to office politics. -Micro-managing is openly encouraged and passed on to colleagues who report back to management. -Growth opportunities are non existent and there is no roadmap for development. They are not interested in promoting within, so if you are looking for another opportunity, you will likely be blocked by management. -There is blatant favoritism . If issues arise with certain employees, they will not be addressed. HR is not on-site and therefore not very involved. -Workloads are distributed very unevenly (i.e. favoritism) and they are constantly in a state of being understaffed. Certain people are given more work than they can handle which leads to them feeling obligated to work off the clock or late in the night/weekend. -Management is not transparent. Information is withheld constantly when changes are on the horizon.

Pros

There are no pros to this company. They are disorganized, ran by a bunch of egoccentric & narcissistic individuals that DO NOT take accountability or responsibility for the actual duties of their positions. Too many people in higher up management positions that DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE CUSTOMER, only how they look in front of their boss. Too many inflated egos to problem solve for customers and give them solutions that do no take over a year to continue to deal with. It's a broken record and dysfunctional cycle of the excuses that they give NOT to do their jobs. STAY AWAY from this company. It's Dysfunctional, Chaotic and Abusive. Go learn somewhere that you will be valued and appreciated for your hard work ethic and special attention to detail with your customers.

Cons

EVERYTHING!!!! I didn't have one positive experience at this company. It was complete HELL and I tried and tried to do everything I could to assist my customers. I should have known this company was going to be a bunch of DRAMA and dysfunctional right from the get go when I asked a question in the group chat and received over 50 messages of nobody knowing what they were talking about and no one knowing what to do about it. It was a vicious cycle of chaos and dysfunction from that point on and let's not leave out the abuse and lies upper management will act upon and tell to cover themselves when they are in the wrong. This company is not built on a great foundation. Save your time, agony and headache and go work for a company that will treat your customers with respect and urgency, value you as an employee and appreciate your hard work ethic.

Pros

I got a regular paycheck.

Cons

This company has value statement but it does not practice them. It is words to make it look like they care. They don't. Management ignores the policies. People who should not be in management are and upper management allows it to go on. It will add to the demise of this company.
