Pros

None but I need to hit the 5 word minimum.

Cons

Implementing corporate driven initiatives that are intended to make life easier and save money are doing the exact opposite. Company is limiting income and in some cases reducing starting pay. Corporate support does not actually support but adds work and is another level of cumbersome and ineffective direction. Corporate departments do not work in unison but actually conflict each other...often creating mass confusion. Moved from dedicated localized support to an undocumented, anonymous email support that often takes days to respond. Not to mention, there is no longer consideration given to client's needs. Training and on-boarding barely exists anymore.

Pros

Travel opportunities. Former corporate management was extremely supportive and good to work with. Free food. Free drama.

Cons

Work life balance. Don’t be a mother to young children if you want to work here. Verbal communication vs. what you get in an email will be contradictory….the gaslighting was unbelievable. Digital metric systems put in place by new corporate management has taken all the creativity and actual management out of the job. Will be mad at you if you don’t make the numbers they want to see, but will provide zero guidance on how best to do so. Hours were extremely long in order to complete all job responsibilities. New upper management is inflexible to specific account needs. Each account is different. HR does not help you - they protect the company. If you need to terminate an employee - they make it impossible.
