Pros

Fortunately my co-workers are wonderful! The politics here is very minimal compared to other companies.

Cons

1. There is no respect for personal time aka- sick days, weekends, after hours. 2. It’s very proudly and openly communicated that it’s okay to call someone when they’re off sick, or on vacation, we’re expected to be on calls or respond to emails or get a deliverable right away even on sick/vacation days. I have wasted so many of my sick days actually working majority of the day and even on the weekends yet having to log these days in. 3. Every email, every request is an absolute fire. Every request that comes in needs to done “right away” “in 10 mins”. Ive gotten frantic call on weekends, many texts, voicemails and mind you-i was not hired to be on call like this. 4. There are extremely long meetings with large sets of people where maybe only 3 people are loud, rude and don’t let anyone else talk or give their input. 5. There’s also always subtle talks about firing people or giving hints of that sort. Even after working so hard, giving up my mental well being and health there is no level of respect or Adulance for one’s work. 6. Lastly, there are TOOO MANY “decision makers”; these decision makers aka management (directors/VPs) make their team’s life miserable extremely different directions. Making the team do the work 50 times over and over again because they’re unable to settle on a fire decision.
