Pros
Building was very nice. It was nice to go to the lobby and enjoy the amenities because the office space itself was depressing and the furniture was tacky. Not much to say. Some of the people were nice to work with. The lower management only.
Cons
The turnover was high. The only plus was Mr. Donohoe. What a joy to work with him and learn. The clients were very nice but the owner of the company will never let you work freely with a client. The owner has to CONTROL every aspect of your job. There was always food in the kitchen. Never felt at ease when I took my vacation because you had to pay for it upon your return. You would be bombarded with emails constantly and texts. There is no work life balance even though they say they are working on it. I see a lot of job openings, you will get burned out very quickly at this company. I moved on to work at a company that I can share my own ideas and my boss welcomes this feedback and even gives me credit for it instead of holding me down as I felt working at Purohit. I even asked the owner if I can join and organization and I was always turned down. The owner's comment was, let's wait and see, well it never came to be....and that told me a lot. Not many raises were given and if you did get a raise it was very little. Micromanagement of my day was exhausting. I see many reviews here and the same theme runs true. So I know it wasn't just me. The production department wasn't fully staffed and I have not seen so many errors in this area. And the filing system was such a ball of confusion. Doing your timesheets was a chore in itself. I am not disgruntled at all and some of the reviews say that only disgruntled employees are writing negative reviews; but I only realized my potential and it was not at this company. You will not grow at this company because they hold you back in so many ways. Your personal life will become nonexistent! Upper management does not communicate well. There is a member of upper management who constantly is involved in every aspect of your job. Let the staff who has experience in this area do their job freely and if they constantly make mistakes or need extra training, that is when you should micromanage them. Not if they are capable and have a lot of experience behind them. The owner of the company IMHO is a control freak and a narcissist to the highest level. As I said, a leopard doesn't change it's spots and the owner will never change either. But only you can decide if this is a culture you want to work in. The mission statement does not match what actually takes place.
