Pros

Some kind and helpful people looking out for each other, mostly to protect from shady managers.

Cons

There are just so many. In my year and a half at the company I had three different managers. The first was truly the most incompetent nepo hire I have ever seen in my life. He would sit at his desk watching tv shows and sucking on his vape pen. Truly useless. The second was a great guy but got involved with other immature shady managers that led to his downfall. The three, a self-described "Homer Simpson brain" was completely out of touch with the department and talked out the side of his mouth at any chance he got. All this to say, the creative content department is a joke. The "coordinators", or whatever arbitrary title they give you, will most likely be forced to run the entire department in the background while managers take credit. You'll be wildly under paid for the work that you do to keep the department afloat. If you are desperate enough to take a job here, at least know that expectations are very low. I have a whole photo album on my phone of employees watching random youtube videos. Just work somewhere else. I promise you it's not worth it.

Pros

Some nice co-workers across different departments They only hire because people keep leaving.. so if you need a job to fill a role they have, they will take you to fill a position.

Cons

-Extreme workload and high expectations for little pay. -PTO has to be used for a Jewish holiday if you want to get paid. They give you a mousepad showing if you will get paid on certain days. You work all year long and regular employees only get 1 day for Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years. -Micromanagement and consent surveillance. You are tracked on the computer and how long you stay in a program or if you are away from your desk for too long it will get flagged. -They hired a new company from the outside to monitor you as well to the point where you can't use your phone. They want to give you a flip phone. -Very toxic management and HR staff... very unfair and will give you zero give if you need to work from home.. they will tell you use your PTO. -Zero career growth whatsoever, everyone. -Favoritism gets you higher up in the company. -Very behind in tech & software on the corporate side but they want to have the latest for the vendors. -High revolving door, very churn & burn mentality. -End to WFH on Fridays... You will only be coming in for 4 hours... tough if you are traveling from far away... -Zero culture and no work-life balance
