Do Not Work Here

Pros

You get to wear whatever you want. Most people are very nice. Your paycheck comes on time.

Cons

Everything else. This place isn’t a fraud per say, but definitely fraud adjacent. There are some super shady and unethical practices happening within those walls. Upper management yells and curses at people all of the time. It doesn’t matter if they’re in the office or out on the floor with everyone else. It’s really hard to trust people. There is no work life balance. There is no respect for your time. The benefits are awful, and the pay isn’t worth it. Talking during work is heavily frowned upon (and can get you yelled at), so it’s really hard to get to know the great people you work around. It’s also really hard to get direction or details for assignments. Many things are done last minute despite your best efforts. If you are looking for a sign not to take the job, this is it. The stories around sexual harassment will shock you. The things that happen in that office will make your eyes pop out of your head. The job is very good for having high moments and then knocking you right back down moments later. Trust me. Do not work here.

Worst place I’ve ever worked

Pros

A small handful of employees are actually genuine, good people.

Cons

- sexism and sexual harassment run rampant with little to no consequences. - ridiculous gender pay gap. They’ll string you along with empty promises of raises/ bonuses. Regardless of how much experience you have or how long you’ve worked for them, if you don’t play into their toxic work culture you’ll never be fairly compensated or promoted. - Their benefits are an absolute joke and are apparently only getting worse. For a company promoting “health and wellness” they really could not care less about their own employees’ actual wellbeing. - Unprofessional management and president. Some of the things they have said openly to employees either in the privacy of their office or literally screaming in the middle of the office should not be tolerated and would be fireable offenses at any other company. They thrive on micromanagement and fear based tactics as a form of motivation/ manipulation. If you think these negative reviews are just disgruntled ex-employees, google ‘share sleuth cbdMD’ and make your own judgement call.

Worst company I have ever worked for

Pros

Dress code is very casual

Cons

Management is horrible. They constantly belittle and humiliate you in front of others. They will do anything to get ahead even if that means firing good employees because others do not favor them. Specifically for the designers, they are asked to do way too much for how they are treated and their overall work load. The president of the company gets mad if you leave ON TIME even if you have completed your work for the day. No talking or taking breaks and assigned seating if you try to collaborate with fellow designers. Not a creative space at all and absolutely no direction when it comes to the actual work you are supposed to be doing. Also, LOTS of sexual harassment from the moment you walk in the building. Lots of sketchy things happening in this company especially with the product itself. Designers are asked to photoshop test results related to the product that is supposed to be helping people... Even if you are not salaried (designers be prepared, you will be very underpaid and over worked) you are expected to drop everything on a weekend or during PTO to complete a project that will take DAYS to get approval and will most likely be completely re-designed by a manager with no form of critique or communication about the project. The company preaches about being a family and going on outings together and having fun while working but as soon as you actually start to work there, you realize how miserable everyone is.
