The worst humans you’ll ever work for

General manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

Terrible company run by narcissists from starbucks. The ceo is a figure head goober who lives in his man cave 24/7 surrounded by his sports memorabilia. A joke of a leadership team. Like they’re fun to make fun of that’s how idiotic they all are. Power hungry but couldn’t turn the lights on if you need em too lol it’s that level of stupid.

Cons

Terrible company run by narcissists from Starbucks. These people are horrible humans, engage in gaslighting manipulation, lying, zero integrity, view long term employees as a liability, HR reports to the COO and is not independent at all. You will never work for a worse group of people in your life then this motley crew right here.
