Pros

Work/life balance is "ok". Informal work environment. Business casual dress code. Flexible hours.

Cons

In order to 'drown out' the bad reviews on this website, the CEO offered gift cards to employees for providing a positive review. Scroll down and look -- ask yourself why there are suddenly so many positive reviews on the same date. The buzz-word: "family" is pushed around frequently by all of those in charge. What kind of 'family' uses and abuses those they care about, and when the going gets tough, toss out their children like yesterday's garbage? This is a shady organization run by selfish, nepotistic backstabbers. Avoid PT like the plague.

Pros

Lax dress code, straightforward work tasks, team players. The job and its responsibilities themselves aren’t bad. My direct supervisor is amazing, and I do work with lots of people I like.

Cons

Bad management, stressful, understaffed, expensive healthcare. PT has some of the worst upper management I’ve ever experienced. reviews have been delayed for over a year, and promises of financial compensation are repeatedly broken. Upper management keeps claiming that hard work and loyalty will be rewarded, but they absolutely are not. Instead, they continually expect employees to go above and beyond, working extra hours and dealing with highly stressful changes, and gives them empty promises in return. Staffing is also a huge issue - the company has been understaffed for a long time, and it seems like more work and extra projects are added constantly without the proper staff size to handle them. Almost every person I work with is consistently stressed out about the workload, and many are clearly unhappy about it on a daily basis. Lastly, the CEO and HR rep are horrible. Neither treat the employees here with respect or concern for their wellbeing. The CEO has been known to loudly use offensive, bigoted language, and talks down to the supervisors. The HR rep is rude and dismissive, and is someone I would never be comfortable going to with a problem or concern. After you’ve worked here for a bit and get to know them, you get a strong sense that this is not a company that values your time, efforts, or even you as an individual.
