Pros

Decent pay, safe location, if you enjoy drinking and sports you will probably like the company culture.

Cons

Incredibly unprofessional, the president's only real qualification is his close friendship with the owner. Dead end job in a field that is dying-junk mail marketing. Their systems are incredibly outdated and therefore overly complicated. High turnover. The same group of 10 employees have been there since the beginning of time and this is a big contributer to a toxic work environment. Due to lack of industry growth they're a slave to a few clients who are abusive to their team. The business is hanging on by a thread. The office conditions are horrible. Mold everywhere.

Pros

Pay is good and co workers are nice.

Cons

Major providers of junk mail. If you can get over the fact that they provide A LOT of junk mail (Valpak, flyers, inserts), then E3 is the place for you. Make sure you get your time off in writing or it will come back to haunt you.

Pros

There are absolutely no pros.

Cons

E3 Local tries to act like an amazing company with amazing opportunities when in all reality, unless you're one of the "lifers", you're easily replaceable. They have a "if you don't like it you can leave" mentality. The pay is atrociously bad, but the president loves to act like culture makes up for it. The culture is non-existent now anyway, so you get terrible pay with no decent perks to make it worth it. The president's only qualification is his friendship with the owner. The president is also a narcissistic misogynistic and loves to only recognize the men and favor a couple in particular. You'll work hard and get zero recognition unless you're male. He loves to play favorites and randomly give out gift cards to those favored (male) people. Not professional at all. Do we even need to bring up the racism behind his son's basketball team at Kings? There is no room for advancement and they don't ever give out any kind of raises or even pay you enough to pay basic bills in the first place. E3 loves to act like some amazing agency bringing in lots of money when in reality, they've been losing all their biggest clients in the last year or so. Oh, and the only consistent people are the "lifers" who are basically better off staying to get their retirement and be done. When people aren't quitting, they're being unfairly fired like it's their fault the company is failing. Management has asked employees to write good reviews on here to get the rating up, but any positive review is a lie. Not too ethical to ask your employees to write reviews in favor of the company for back end perks. E3 will seem like a good place to work but they are consistently losing clients and employees. I wouldn't even tell my worst enemy to work for E3. Should we also include the building/environment issues? Why not! Every summer the A/C breaks so it's 90 degrees and humid in the office. Then in the winter it's the heat and it's 60 degrees. Terrible, old, worn down office building that the owners refuse to spend money on fixing, but still expect you to come to work, following the dress code, and work your full 40+ hours in unbearable temperatures. DO NOT WORK HERE. I'm surprised they've stayed afloat this long but no way can they last much longer. For a company with around 20 employees, it's astounding how bad the turnover is. Over half have left in the last year (14 I can think of off the top of my head).
