Business outlook

Pros

Flexible hours - remote setting

Cons

If you are a minority they will assume you have no capacity to learn. There is no job safety, no community (forced feeling of togetherness but employees are shady), and communication is extremely lackluster. Not a good place to start a career, only a good place to work if backed into a corner and you’re good at following directions.
