Pros

The design department is wonderful, and I loved everyone I worked with.

Cons

Poor management. Inappropriate, borderline sexual harassment from the owner to multiple women in all departments. Owner frequently yells, calls people stupid, and embarrasses his employees in front of everyone at meetings. Everyone is worked to the bone, with little to no appreciation. No raises, some even have worked here for years and haven't gotten a single raise. Expectation here is to go above and beyond, work overtime and put out your best work with no reward. When owners were confronted about working overtime with no raise, the reaction was to point out other employees who work excessive overtime with no raise, as if that makes it okay.

Pros

Friendly, smart and driven employees that put forth every ounce of effort to complete projects on time. If you come in with a good attitude people will help you. The company sometimes has catered events and holiday activities.

Cons

-Low compensation. -Very high turnover rate. -Poor project management. -Too much work expected from too few employees. -Little to no interaction between employees(cube farm). -Limited street parking for employees unless you're a manager. -No room for improvement or ideas on how things could change for the better. -Stale and outdated business mentality. -Unqualified people given too much control. -Zero leadership. -US vs THEM atmosphere. -Teams are fragmented. -Selfish business practices. -Non-progressive. -Persistent passive aggressive interactions between employees and upper management. -Constant inappropriate physical contact and comments from upper management(male) to employees(female) that violate all sexual harassment rules. Despite these unwanted interactions, the harassment of female employees is allowed to continue. -Overall general fear of bringing up issues from employees to upper management due to the volatility of positions and fear of being yelled at and humiliated publicly.

Toxic from the Top Down

Pros

- Talented and inspiring design team

Cons

- No incentive to go above and beyond, which is consistently asked of you. - By that I mean, there is no review structure, which leads to... - Work there for 5-10 years and you might see one raise, and that includes a lack of cost of living raises. - Toxic ownership trickles down to toxic culture. - Financial Stability - this is a classic example of a business that is stuck at a certain number of employees and doesn't show any signs of growth. In fact, the opposite. In a stretch of 6 years, they churned through 4 CFOs, eventually being left without one, which is a major red flag regarding their finances. - Ancient processes that are a time suck for the design team, despite constant failed efforts to update the process. - Departmental in-fighting - Hostile ownership that has a history of making female employees uncomfortable - Disrespectful talking behind employees backs openly, and ESPECIALLY about those that have left the company. - Lack of proper resources dedicated to elevating the business model from outdated brick/mortar sales to e-commerce, putting this company severely behind the times. - Failure of management to use people to their strengths
