Absolutely terrible.

Pros

Good pay. Closed on weekends. Flexible schedule.

Cons

Literally everything else. I worked at this company for a little less than a month and ended up quitting due to absolutely shocking, toxic work environment. The office itself is beautiful. The work itself is not bad and is a manageable load. The employees are nice. The management? The absolute worst. I was an admin assistant for all of 4 weeks and I literally left this job SOBBING almost every day. I was berated, condescended and was not given a not one single ounce of positive feedback ONCE, even though there are weekly performance reviews. I felt degraded. My self-esteem crumbled and my entire family was concerned for my health, as I became withdrawn and sickly from stress, as well as the constant crying spells I would go through every day after work. No matter how hard I tried, my efforts were not acknowledged or were met with negativity. I was not trained properly and most of my questions would be met with "use critical thinking" and I would be left to figure it out and then scolded when I inevitably made mistakes. I was even told I would have to come in on my own time to finish tasks (even if they were asinine things that could be put off) which is not only ridiculous but HIGHLY illegal. I would feel stupid and be patronized constantly. I was met with constant passive aggression. I was expected to read minds and know things without being trained on them. I learned nothing from this job and feel it is the absolute WORST job I've ever had and the biggest waste of time I've ever experienced in my entire life. I am not sure if they treat other employees this way because it feels that there was a personal vendetta against me from management, but I would not want to work for a company with the capacity to treat someone like this. I came in as a young college student ready to learn and willing to do all I could to learn to do my job well- and left jaded, disappointed and absolutely disgusted by the lack of empathy and guidance I received. I would've rather stayed in my annoying retail job I had before this than sacrificing my dignity working here. Beware.
