Pros
When you work there the people will make you feel like you belong there. You feel close to co-workers and they eventually become friends you'll never forget.
Cons
When you join a company who believes your co-workers are family and headquarters is your home, you expect them to treat you and your family members who leave with respect. The reality is once someone leaves, no matter why, they become persona non-grata to an extreme. They are not allowed to come to company events, if they show up as your guest, they are ignored and someone sits you down to tell you not to bring them around. Someone in another department was instructed to have no contact with their former supervisor under any circumstances. That is not who I am. That is not how I want to be treated. And it is exactly how I am treated. I no longer work there and I don't even feel comfortable going downtown anymore. Sometimes I cry over my loss of my family. I hope someone reads this and starts doing the right thing. Lastly, 3 people who worked for Downtown Project killed themselves. There is no memorial or mention of them. They are ghosts that haunt everybody.
