Pros

I'll edit this when I can think of a Pro!

Cons

Granted, I was only employed at LATHER for 3 months before I walked out - yes, now all of the employees know who wrote this. Walking into the place, they do a FANTASTIC job putting on a facade that they are culture focused and team oriented.. that being said, I had a great first 2 weeks until the true colors started to show. The drama behind that place is something you would see if lifetime came out with a rendition of Mean Girls. I have never dealt with such immature, shady adults in my life - let alone from the managing staff. My duties included things that they could never fathom due to never having my position prior to me, so I knew there would be some learning curve with management and communication. Boy, was that a misconstrued outlook on my part! If you thoroughly enjoy micro-management, untrusting people, horrible benefits, moody (often so childish they will avoid you) management, your timecard looked at under a microscope, zero culture, slow weeks, more unenjoyable days than if you were a prison mate in Orange is The New Black, untimely reimbursements, internet that literally never works, broken promises, zero room for growth, raises or bonuses and the 8-10 enjoyable people that have given their lives to that place, than this is definitely the place for you. If you do not enjoy the above, literally go work anywhere else and you will be worlds happier. Life is too short to work for a company who puts less respect in you than they do in the creaky stairs that lead up to the place.
