Pros

The environment, the atmosphere, the amazing people you will meet, open self-expression. Your coworkers will make the job 10x better because they embody what Area15 wants to create. The food is good but they don't pay enough for you to enjoy it

Cons

Terrible pay for the amount of responsibility they want to give you Most departments have no training since the senior employee has only been there for 3 months and also wasn't trained. Managers can't be bothered but will chew you out for not knowing better No benefits, no overtime Toxic Positivity Some departments are completely hostile work environments and management shrugs it off Inconsistent scheduling/No respect for your time Most of upper management is beyond incompetent and only got their job because they are friends with someone. The good managers end up leaving after constantly picking up everyones slack and not bring appreciated for it Nothing in the building is consistent, things are always breaking and not getting fixed in a timely manner. Floor staff is blamed for the issue when they are short staffed, overworked, underpaid, and underappreciated Regularly being a shoulder for someone to cry on from the stress
