Pros

Fast growing company. Cons outweigh any other pros.

Cons

Terrible management. They don’t care about employees at all, which is evident via annually decreasing profit sharing (even as record results are reached...), cancellation of monthly birthday celebrations, and extreme downscaling of holiday party. Turnover is massive due to moody managers and management politics. Massive HR issues were present during my time with the company, which were swifting pushed under the metaphorical rug.

Pros

None at this point. All the cons that have taken place cancel out any pros.

Cons

Employee moral is extremely low. Took away celebrating birthdays, cut back on Christmas party, etc. Staff doesn’t feel appreciated. No work-life balance. You get in TROUBLE for leave on time. Work is all dumped on staff, not distributed correctly. They don’t appreciate working moms, no matter how hard you work. If your a working mom you will be made to feel as if you have no room for growth. Extremely high turn over - which is all due to management. Management always has there office doors closed. You don’t feel like you can go to them with any questions.
