Pros
-Summer Fridays (if your workload permits…my former team was understaffed so I was hardly ever done with work by 5pm) -Company pays 100% of health insurance premium -End of year bonus (up to the discretion of management) -Snacks in the office
Cons
-We never received a stipend to set up our home office or to assist with internet/electricity/office supplies -Management seemed eager to get employees back into an office space during the impending pandemic -Working from home was seen like a privilege and as a result, associates were expected to be online 24/7. Long work hours were the norm -Company has very little structure and priorities change everyday -Lack of supportive work culture (constant BCC’ing among employees, finger pointing masked as feedback, sink or swim environment) -Directors in the company perpetuate the toxic work culture by not speaking up for those without a voice in the company -Company’s mission and core values are half hearted. It is hard to find personal fulfillment in your job when all that matters are sales and profit -Seems like your salary is closely tied to your age -Very little regard to mental health and well being -Low team morale and the feeling of burnout can be felt across the company -Lack of systems and structure which results in tons of manual data entry -No career development. You’re on your own to push for your own growth/training -There’s no HR dept. and as a result, unprofessionalism runs rampant
