Prison - run the other way!

Pros

The team was pleasant to work with and there was a great focus on running a lean operation.

Cons

The policies are like that of a sweatshop. The only thing that the company gives is 10 paid vacation days and 6 sick days - which can be availed of only after spending 1 year at the company. There is no other work perk - no December vacations, no personal days, and no wellness spending account. Basically, there is nothing in favor of an employee's well-being or mental health. If you are looking for a wholesome workplace, this is not it! This is a sweatshop that runs on the ideology of living in the 1950's in a slave town. Run.

Uncomfortable work environment

Business outlook

Pros

High autonomy and minimal meetings with petulant management.

Cons

Condescending and arrogant leadership. Very old fashioned and not open to change or innovation. Got the vibe this company was trying to turn out whatever it could in a hurry for a profit while paying employees as little as possible. Lack of guidance and support, space was made for questions but answers provided were always given in a such a way to ensure you felt less-than or inadequate. Guidance and directives were very confusing - would be told one thing, only to later be told another. To put it quite crassly, manager fit the profile of someone who was likely bullied as an adult in the workplace and is now retaliating by grasping for power and treating otherwise bright, intelligent and capable talent poorly. Very strange and unexpected atmosphere for a kids toy company. Overall discouraging, uninviting and unsupportive environment. 10/10 would avoid.
