This was the most bizarre employment experience I have ever had. At first it seemed great - employees seemed to get along well, perks like a trip to an amusement park and weekly breakfasts. I went through training and started to notice strange things about management and the staff. It is very cult-like and employees seem to worship the Chief People Officer or whatever BS title that guy has. There is a group of people who are clearly the favorites and work as management's mouthpieces. They use scare tactics and passive aggressiveness in an attempt to "motivate" you, when in actuality, their methods are counter productive.
If you are reading Glassdoor, I assume you looking for real insight into a company. Here are the things that I wish I paid more attention to before working there:
- All of the positive reviews on here use the same language. "This job changed my life!" or "Ink leaves you better than when they found you!" You will hear employees say this in the office too, but only when management is in ear shot. Talk to people outside of the office and you will learn that you have to drink the KoolAid to be successful with this company and it's all smoke and mirrors.
- Notice how Ink responds to negative reviews on here. Their responses to criticism on this site are argumentative and threatening. These responses should be red flags! Do you want to work for a company where criticism is met with threats? Because that's the work environment you will be in if you choose to work for Ink.
