It's a job- not a career

Pros

Provides a steady paycheck, Most employees off on weekends, set schedule, relatively good work/life balance, try to retain top employees (just not very hard)

Cons

-Teach yourself how to do your job. Then, once you've done that, teach yourself how to do someone else's. Management here took "Knowledge is Power" and interpreted it to me the less you know, the less you threaten me. -Increases in responsibility not accompanied by increase in wage -You will never receive a review and HR does not care about it -Business-model resembles a pyramid scheme. Small group of people (executives) manipulates larger group of people (employees) to exploit larger group of people (customers). Feels like working for a smaller version of the cable company. -Racist. Zero minority managers. Zero white folks performing the menial tasks.

Pros

The office has a very laid back atmosphere, depending on your department, so for the most part, no one is really keeping track of when you come or go. This can be a bad thing though as people who take advantage of this really effect the performance of their team with no discipline, which can spread a cloak of negativity among your peers. Most of the people are decent to work with in terms of friendliness and responsibility. The company provides a good benefits and vacation package and offers opportunities to young professionals straight out of college.

Cons

The biggest challenge was working through a CEO that requires every decision be made through him. He doesn't believe in incentive or recognition, so it's hard to feel appreciated or even know when you're doing something right. Rather, he thinks he should talk down or embarrass his employees to point out what they're doing wrong. Salaries are absolutely ridiculous, even for Lexington, and the hiring of younger people is definitely taken advantage of. People will get hired in and be happy to have an income, but then the workload is tripled within the first year but their salaries remain the same. Reviews are always at least 7 months late, and often unfair. There are also a lot of ethical and political issues within the company, such as secret bonuses for pets and business practices that are intended to rip off college students.
