Pros
- Coffee & Water - OK Location
Cons
- 9 HR WORKDAYS: Turn-Key Systems STRICTLY adheres to California law of one 10 minute break per 3 hours, and 1 hour of UNPAID lunch. 8:30a - 5:30p, a 45 hour work week paid as a 40 hour work week. I had several hours deducted from my paycheck for taking too many bathroom breaks and from coming back from lunch 10-20 mins late several times. You're required to carry an electronic key fob that tracks your time down to the second. Felt like I was working at McDonalds. - HORRIBLE PAY: I was paid BELOW HALF the market rate of a Mid-Level PHP developer in San Diego. - NO CAREER GROWTH: Small company, extreme lack of funds, tenured irreplaceable managers. - INACCURATE JOB DESCRIPTION: I applied to the original job listing as a Mid-Level PHP Developer but on my offer letter they reduced my title to PHP Developer. Job ended up being replacing images, text, and videos on several Wordpress websites 60% of time. Making python scripts for random stuff 20% of time. Inventorying old websites 10% of time. Configuring websites and computer 10% of time. - CONDESCENDING MANAGER: Manager spoke to coworker and I on occasion with demeaning tone. Gasped often and was generally frustrated. Sometimes became irritated if you asked for clarification. Very poor management skills as I jumped from project to project up to 5 times daily waiting for next task to be assigned or clarified. Spoke poorly about her direct reports and former employees to me on several occasions.
