Pros

Decent pay for the job title.

Cons

One of the worst companies I’ve worked for. The work life balance is non-existent. Managers will tell you not to work too much, take care of yourself, etc. meanwhile the workload is way beyond the contracted 40 hours a week, unpaid, and there are consequences if work is not completed. Most employees seemed over worked and unhappy. HR will send you links to time management and work-life balance “resources” rather than addressing the issues you bring to them. The company is seeking major market share without proper staffing. Overall, the employees seemed to have a negative view of their jobs which can be really taxing on your mental health. HR alluded to the CEO being kind of a jerk during the interview- I should have listened.

Pros

My team was really professional and I loved my manager. She was incredibly helpful and always willing to consult on best practices.

Cons

Awful company culture. The office environment was so suffocating, They expanded the office that included a Nintendo room (ik this sounds petty but if you were to see the room, you’d understand) and we were required to not spend more than 10 mins at a time away from our desk. So performative and did not foster collaboration in any way.
