Pros

The job itself was easy enough to learn, so getting started was not the hard part.

Cons

The hard part was everything that came after. The pay is low, stress is high, and it never really lets up. Turnover is constant, so you are always seeing someone leave or hearing that another person is looking for a way out. Leadership talks a lot, but the way things are run makes no sense half the time. If you are not one of the favorites, it becomes obvious pretty quickly. Favoritism spreads through this place like a plague, and good workers usually end up burned out or fed up. This was not somewhere you build a future, it was somewhere you try to escape.

Pros

other employees are generally nice and cool people. Trauma bonding FTW!

Cons

take it from me, working here is genuinely not worth it. If it’s take a job here or live in a cardboard box on the side of the road, generally it’s probably better than being homeless, although you’ll get paid so little that begging on the side of the road might be more lucrative. Then most of management like to show off how much money they have (in different ways) when you’re just struggling to make ends meet. Turnover isn’t a red flag here—it’s the entire color palette. Everyone is either interviewing, planning their escape, or mentally disassociating just to get through the day. I realized I needed to leave within three weeks of my start date, which, based on conversations, is actually a pretty standard onboarding milestone. The CEO handed the reins to his daughters, the CFO and COO, who run things with the confidence of people who have never once considered they might be the problem, combined with the decision making skills of high school mean girls leading to a situation that is toxic AF. This trickles down to the rest of the management team making everyone’s life a living hell. Working here feels like being on an island where the rules are made up, constantly changing, and only apply to you if you’re not a favorite. Favoritism is strong, accountability is optional, and consistency is nonexistent. Expect bullying, passive aggression, gaslighting and more! They fire people on nothing more than vibes, and if they can’t justify firing you they will make your life miserable in an attempt to make you quit. I lost 10 pounds when I left without changing anything in my lifestyle, it was all due to stress. I have several concrete examples that would add context here, but sharing them would make this review less anonymous than intended, so with that, to whom it may concern, just trust me on this one, save yourself now and look elsewhere for a job.

Pros

The creative side of the job can be really enjoyable.

Cons

- The work itself can be enjoyable, but the constant lack of recognition becomes infuriating very quickly. - Designers pour long hours into major projects while the credit repeatedly lands with another department. - Leadership injects heavy tension into the office and decisions often appear driven by emotion instead of clear judgment. - That behavior fuels endless drama and leaves employees irritated most of the time. - There have also been disturbing harassment situations that made several people deeply uncomfortable. - When those incidents were raised with management, the response felt weak and dismissive, leaving employees feeling abandoned. - It sends the message that problems like that are far easier to ignore than correct. - After a while the environment becomes exhausting and the entire place starts to feel unethical and completely unhinged.
