The biggest issue at this company is Brandon Rost, the owner. There is a complete lack of trust in employees, which creates a culture built around micromanagement, anxiety, and unrealistic expectations. Every minute of your workday is monitored through excessive time tracking, yet no matter what you do, it’s never enough. If you finish under allocated time, you’re told you aren’t doing enough. If you go over, you’re considered inefficient. Leadership constantly pushes AI into every aspect of the business as if it’s a replacement for actual employees instead of a tool to support them. There’s an unhealthy obsession with automation and outsourcing work overseas rather than investing in, trusting, and retaining the talented employees already working for the company. Instead of valuing experienced team members who understand the clients, workflows, and expectations, leadership seems convinced cheaper labor and AI-generated work are the solution to every problem. The company talks about wanting systems and organization, but leadership frequently derails projects, overpromises deliverables to clients, and creates impossible turnaround expectations that employees are then blamed for not meeting. Employees are expected to clean up the fallout from decisions they had no control over. Turnover is extremely high, and for good reason. Multiple employees across departments have left because of the micromanagement, pressure, lack of support, and overall treatment from upper management. Concerns brought forward by department leaders are routinely ignored. Instead of coaching employees or improving processes, leadership resorts to blame, pressure, and intimidation. Employees are regularly treated as replaceable, in fact Brandon will make it a point to tell employees that anyone can be replaced at the drop of a hat. Hard work, strong client relationships, and positive performance reviews often mean very little when leadership refuses to acknowledge its own role in the company’s problems.

This is a work environment that sounds so great from the outside until you actually start working there. Management is obsessively focused on every move employees make, fostering a claustrophobic micromanagement style that stifles genuine productivity. Every laptop is equipped with invasive monitoring software that tracks your every move and takes random screenshots throughout the day to be sent to leadership. This scrutiny doesn't stop when you leave the office. On work from home days employees can expect every single minute of their day, down to the length of their lunch breaks, to be questioned and analyzed for "inefficiencies." The professional environment is further marred by a leadership team that leads through intimidation rather than inspiration. It is common knowledge that the CEO views all employees as replaceable, a sentiment that manifests in disrespectful interactions and public outbursts where staff are screamed at in front of the office. I have never felt more disrespected in my life than I did when speaking to him. This "efficiency at all costs" mindset is furthered by a heavy reliance on AI to produce mediocre work, while the human staff is pushed to the breaking point. If you prove yourself to be competent, you aren't met with praise or a promotion. Instead, you will be assigned the workload of two people and expected to work unpaid overtime to get it all done. Ultimately, this is a workplace where raises and recognition are non-existent, yet additional responsibilities are handed out constantly. The business model is centered on paying the bare minimum and burning employees out until they either quit or are let go. It is an environment that relies on high turnover and low respect, making it an unsustainable choice for anyone looking for a healthy or rewarding career path.
