Unprofessional environment.

Pros

I can't really think of any pros. At first you would think a small family run operation would be nice but the lack of consistency, management and professionalism becomes apparent after a few months. There are good workers there, but it is greatly overshadowed by the poor working conditions/management.

Cons

Growing workload with not enough staff to cover for it. Many around me had a "drowning" feel about their day and there didn't seem to be any hope for that to change anytime soon. Pay is minimal for this particular industry and favoritism definitely plays a role in who gets promoted. It's who you know here, not what you know. Because of the increasing workload, days off were not encouraged ever, even if you were considerably sick. They would prefer the entire office to be sick then to lose one person for a day or two. The unprofessional comes from all of these things and more, including firing personnel over text message (done multiple times) "management" lounging around in shorts not even long enough to cover their backside, favoritism over skill, and the short staffed, high stress environment. It is all about numbers here, do not believe for a second management cares about you, which even then, it would be fine if they had a decent business structure, which they don't. Outdated systems, things constantly being lost, many things would need to be updated and improved for this place to be an effective workplace, including the CEO's attitude.

Nepotism and Cliques

Pros

Extremely short turnaround between application and interview/start date. Casual office with a sweet office cat and fairly frequent catered employee appreciation lunches.

Cons

This office was full of gossip and nepotism, the general company culture was negative and there was a strange divide between the nepotism hires (friends of the family of the company owners, family of those friends) vs the newer hires. High turn-over in the new hires. Incompetent management.

Pros

Flexibility, that’s about it. Nothing else.

Cons

Lack of management, favoritism, unprofessional environment, harassment. If you look at the lone bad review in April you’ll see that about month later, a hoard of positive reviews were added. This was incentivized by the very CEO that also wrote a review herself, so can you really call any of those genuine? My advice: stay away from this place, it’s toxic.
