Pros

• Looks good to have "Rolling Stone" on your resume. • It's widely known that if you can survive at Wenner, then you can survive anywhere • Great place to work if you are into professional sadomasochism • The interior decoration of the office is quite nice

Cons

• The pressure to accomplish huge amounts of work in short amounts of time with little or no resources is overwhelming • Absolutely no support or understanding from management. I only got a raise when I threatened to leave. • Toxic culture based on fear rather than reward. • Exceptionally unyielding accounting department and overly complicated accounting practices. • Extremely high staff turnover

Pathetic Excuse For a Company

Pros

There are zero pros of working here.

Cons

Hands down the worst experience I’ve ever had. You soon discover that no one actually enjoys working there and it’s a rat race to get out. Aside from having to pay for coffee, they offer no professional development opportunities, there is no room for growth, it’s a stagnant swamp. Nothing innovative or exciting is happening. Also, the atmosphere is horrible. Toxic, manipulative, deceptive are a few words that come to mind. I highly suggest if you are even considering working here, don’t. You won’t grow, learn, or develop. It’s truly a pathetic company.
