Pros

Learned a lot (understaffed so we had to do everything) Office space was pretty cool Coworkers were nice people They bought us lunch sometimes Was able to leave and move on to (much) better things

Cons

This is the worst job I've ever had simply for two reasons: Mark & Jabez. The owners (both at times unprofessional and inappropriate) have no idea how to treat their employees. They hide under the guise of "Look at how cool we are! We drink beer on Fridays! Unlimited vacation!" What a joke. They only hire kids right out of college who don't know any better about what their work-life balance should be. They are way underpaid for the amount of work and crap they have to put up with. Oh, and you better fit into their clique and drink the cool aid. If you don't totally live and breathe everything GNGF, you're not going to fit in - and they have no problem making that perfectly clear. The owners have such an air of superiority about them you can't even believe it until you see it for yourself. If you want to enjoy your life, make a decent wage, and not stay in the office late every single night while your arrogant leadership tries to brainwash you into thinking your employment there is God's gift to you, do yourself a favor and don't even THINK about applying to work here. Not to mention, everything is just such a facade with these guys. If you need proof, just look at the two previous positive reviews they got on here - both 5 stars from current employees with a response from Mark. Give me a break. There's 10 people on the team. It's painfully obvious to anyone with a brain that their employees were asked to leave reviews so Mark could respond and make the company look better. Interns seem to love it there, probably because they only have to tolerate it for a few months. Don't be fooled by the reviews - any former full-time employees who have worked there for more than a year will all tell you the same thing: Run.

Pros

The biggest pro while working at GNGF is the culture. The diverse working enviornment was so nice to be a part of. The team is a hybrid of remote and in office. Working remote really helped me as a student and I was able to get more done on my work setup at home but I was glad to be around the team in their really nice office in downtown Cincinnati. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly, and GNGF follows it’s core values extremely well. As a Co-Op here, they gave me space to do what I know best and always offered me help when needed. The team is very knowledgable and despite them being busy working hard for GNGF’s many clients, they still make time for the little things and internal check ups on each other and I appreciated that. I don’t think there wasn’t anything negative that I can say about GNGF. It was a great time, great team, amazing Mentor and CEO. Mark is the best CEO I have ever worked with he always is a part of the team and not just the boss. Jamie K. as a mentor was great and any forthcoming student or employee will appreciate being around her and learning from her.

Cons

I have no cons for GNGF, hours for my position were great, they let me choose how many hours I worked past my minimum for school. Despite having my own personal troubles while working there, GNGF was understanding and I thank them for that.
