Pros
Free coffee - Worked Downtown where there are a lot of cool shops and restaurants. Great to leave work and go out after work.
Cons
• Applied for Associate Business Systems Analyst with SmartAuction, given a different title and job responsibilities instead and kept with the same team. Role was flat out changed after being hired without discussion. • Unorganized Leadership that doesn’t communicate with each other. • Leadership glued to their screens, Management 3 feet away would IM/Email workers instead of talking to workers directly • Terrible Work Life Balance – Below Market Pay with 45-50 Hour office work week expected • Working after hours at home and working Friday-Saturday-Sunday is the norm. This includes weekends at 2am. Forget a weekend life. No Extra Pay given. When having an out of town vacation already planned and approved, management expects you to bring your laptop with you to work on the vacation. • Talking to management about issues will be turned against the employee • Disciplinary action given to employees who want to move within the company. All good performance reviews, but when asking to explore different roles within the company, management will give employees disciplinary action. • Employees who put in their two weeks will be escorted out immediately if management doesn’t like them, without opportunity to give an exit interview • Management doesn’t look long term as far as how much time is needed for projects. As projects reach deadlines, instead of pushing back the deadline they require employees to start working nights and weekends in order to meet them. This isn’t a one-time situation, this is normal. This means working nights and even more on weekends than previously suggested. When asked to have more help on the project, the response is, “It is expected that salaried employees will need to put in more work.” Management doesn’t like employees who say no to working on weekends regardless on if your personal life has prior plans that weekend.
