Pros
Carrboro is a great little town.
Cons
I dedicated over three years of my career to a growing company that grew too fast due to nothing but greed fueled by sociopathic management tactics. This is not a home for artists. Artists are treated like machines. I was on the creative team and we called ourselves "art trolls" because that is how we were treated by our colleagues in the rest of the company. You will be asked to copy other artists' work, you will be told after working for 9 hours straight that you need to work harder by a manager who has been sending you blog posts and memes all day. They track your every move down to the minute. I have been sexually harrassed at this company, I have experienced discrimination because of my gender, I can only describe this environment as sexist and fear based. Women are afraid to speak up for themselves in meetings because the second they challenge a man's opinion, they WILL be targeted and pushed to quit or be fired. The only way to get a promotion is to babysit your boss's kids and tattle on your colleagues after a candid after-work drink. This job made me physically ill. I stayed for the health insurance, thinking I had no choice. 12 weeks after leaving, my health began to improve. I'll never make this mistake again.
