Dont Do it Girl.... - Project Coordinator Dominique Cosmetics Employee Review

- small company so you can wear many hats - can get close with employees because you can work with everybody - great learning experience

- can be hard to manage if you are still in school

you form trauma-bonds with your co-workers *which is not a good thing*

I would just scroll past the job posting. There is minimal onboarding or formal training, and employees are expected to figure things out on their own. While self-directed learning can be valuable, in this environment, there is little opportunity for growth. Most tasks involved skills I already possessed before joining. Leadership, including the CEO and CCO, often makes decisions that feel emotionally driven and ego-centered. There is a noticeable lack of respect for employees’ time, and staff (which they hardly have) are frequently expected to respond immediately to demands without appropriate time and compensation. Promises of growth and advancement rarely happen, especially given that their turnover rate is so high, and the workplace culture often feels more retaliatory than supportive. There is also a constant lack of communication between the CEO and CCO, and they frequently change creative direction and expectations, which makes it difficult to know what needs to be done. This environment is toxic and unprofessional, and management can be so performative that it feels extremely uncomfortable to be around. Proceed with caution before moving forward with them. The pay is not worth the stress.
