Let me paint you a picture: Looking for a company that ships and markets high end luxury items? Looking to boost your resume with projects that list major brand names and high visibility projects? Wanting to be on the cutting edge of once large scale e-commerce business? LOOK NO FURTHER! You get all these aforementioned perks and more: High visibility to those in upper positions (only so that more work can get dumped on you when you're already stressed to the max and stretched too thin - load up on any anti-depressant/anti-anxiety medications before you take their insurance; it sucks, and you'll need every milligram you can get your hands on). Getting thrown into projects that you have ZERO understanding about but have to deliver to an unrealistic timeline that was set forth from one of the "Good Ole Boys" that run the joint. Can't say no cuz, whoa no! That's going to make you look bad! You get to cheer on your fellow employees as they get raises, promotions, title changes, and office moves all because they went to Happy Hour together and talk smack about the rest of the office! Gone are the days of working your tail off, proving your worth, and bringing the company money - its all about who ya know. Like working nights, weekends, religious holidays, and during your vacations? Nobody ever got ahead by doing less, right??! If working the extended hours isn't for you, there's a few people in management that would LOVE to give you the chance to do less than anyone else in your position so long as you *ahem* train directly under them.. Like watching other people in your department go on vacations, leave at 3:00 every day to go to happy hour (only after getting in at 10, mind you) and ignore the catastrophic meltdown that's imploding the company while you get in at 8, leave at 7, and have to remind your children who you are each night as you tuck them in because they haven't seen your face in days? Don't let me forget to tell you all about the Buddy System in place, too. Man, oh man. Miss the glory days of high school where you would dizzy yourself with worry about being last picked in gym class? Or how about fretting over who you will sit with at lunch? Remember how exciting it was to be intimidated by the group of "cool kids" that seemingly ran the school - able to get away with anything they wanted and you couldn't tell anyone in authority otherwise? I promise you this here at TG for sure! Are you talented at ignoring racist and misogynist remarks? Perfect! Because you won't be known as a name here to anyone in a higher role - you'll have your very own special nickname that only the "Good Ole Boys" will know you by. It's like your very own secret club! Looking to lose weight? In addition to the new state-of-the-art gym that was just installed (prison yards have better equipment, by the way..) You'll get to spend hours a day tracking down the ONE person knows how to do a super-duper important job that controls 80% of the business for the entire company. This person, while not hard to spot, can be incredibly difficult to find. As this person is moseying about the office, you get to repeatedly ask where they are, have you seen them, are they in today, and when will they be back? Once you do pin them down, you get to deal with the dripping sarcasm from this entitled employee who knows they are the only one who can do what you need because they have a god-complex (and nobody in the company has ever thought to fix this, they all just agree it's an issue..). And your reward for finally finding this person, is to sit down and send a barrage of emails asking them to do their job with their manager who has lost all will to deal with this, over and over until they finally do their job, hours too late, and past the clients requested timeframe. Score!! And if that's not enough to wet your whistle, what if I told you that in a 6 month span, over 25 people resigned, leaving a single department, and 6 people in just ONE role? Itching to apply, right? I can tell you there's a few new openings! The CEO JUST quit, the CFO got outta Dodge, and the rest of the passengers on this modern day Titanic are all scrambling for life vests while the lonely violinist keeps cranking on - making promises to current client's so they don't lose the only revenue they have and making even more outlandish promises to potential clients to bring any business they can in. Don't walk, RUN!
