Pros

Casual dress, some people are very nice

Cons

The most toxic work environment I have ever had the displeasure of working in. Was verbally and emotionally berated by a coworker multiple times, and when I brought it up to management I was told that "it's just their personality, so you just have to suck it up." That same employee made physical threats against multiple other coworkers (who have quit to get away from this employee) and they are still employed, take that as you will. Upper management is atrocious and only cares about money. They do not listen to the people actually doing the real work in the company and blame them for their own mistakes. The pay is not a livable wage and vacation time is minimal.

Pros

it’s a job and you get a paycheck. That’s about the only pro.

Cons

This place is a joke. Upper management is completely absent and out of touch. The Director of Operations is a mean and condescending woman who doesn’t have a leadership bone in her body and it just trickles down from there. Entry level positions receive little to no training, are immediately thrown into the mix because of how poor the resource management is just to be scolded and yelled at when they inevitably make mistakes. There is no sense of community because the turnover rate is so high that entire groups are replaced almost annually. Compensation is far below industry standard. 80% of the work is done by 20% of the employees so you are destined to be either one of the many people who show up every day to sit and rot at their desk or if you make the mistake of showing any promise you will quickly have 3 jobs worth of work piled on your plate. If you have any other options or you can hold out for another opportunity I would highly advise it.

Pros

Clean facilities. Mostly friendly environment. Colleagues are easy to get along with.

Cons

Management is ineffective. Could definitely be improved by hiring more people instead of increasing workload without a match in compensation.
