Senior editorial assistant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are pretty good and pay has increased slightly

Cons

The CEO is the worst. No flexible/hybrid work options, no clear communication from management about return to work during COVID, no exceptions considered/approved -even due to serious health (cancer) and mental illness, no cohesiveness, no one talks to anyone. No employee annual reviews for years (and metrics are a joke)! Hallways are dark. lights off, bathrooms are gross, office is severely outdated, no A/C or refuse to use it, kitchenette is in need of remodel - sink keeps breaking. No windows, low ceilings, poor lighting. Such a depressing place to work.
