Terrible Management at the time of my employment
Pros
The Executives are all wonderful and organized people. HR Manager, Kelli is absolutely amazing. She did all she could to negate the cons of this position, but I don't think she had any genuine support from her superior, Sara. It is my opinion that she should have Sara's job because she did all of her work anyway.
Cons
At the time of my employment, this position was a catch-all position for all tasks that the other teams did not feel like doing. I will be very honest it was very demeaning at times. In this position, I felt more like a maid than an Office Manager. Some examples of what was expected of me: collect and wash dishes (yes, for ALL team members who did not have enough common decency to at least put them in the sink or dishwasher), steam the rugs (on weekends too) to save money being spent on hiring a professional service, stock and rotate three large fridges of product (this took a good 1-2 hours a day to complete), sort and count inventory for said fridges, stay for company team engagement events NOT to take part but only to see to set up and cleanup (this was mandatory and often occurred after hours), clean up after team member's dogs after they had an accident (several were attentive while others simply did not care), troubleshoot IT issues before outsourcing to IT help desk, fix and clean icemaker (I was made to do this. When I and the Facilities Director failed to find a solution and I was finally allowed to call maintenance the professional lectured me and told that my hand could have been mangled by the auger), fix the toilets in the event that they were having issues, forgo lunch so that I could buzz people in for reception (there was no plan in place for when I would like to take my lunch), etc. Oh yes and then there were the regular office management tasks that you would expect. Good luck doing all that and keeping up with your regular work and ad hoc team projects.
