I don't even know where to begin...
Working here has been one of the most demoralizing, soul-draining experiences of my career.
Let’s get this out of the way first: yes, the pay is decent for the area, and that’s the only reason anyone sticks around. But even that’s starting to feel like it’s not worth it. Every single person you talk to is either actively job hunting or already in the interview process. That should tell you everything.
Management? Horrible. Condescending. Out of touch. They demand a minimum of 50 hours a week from everyone, and that’s just the baseline. If you push back or say you need time for your family or life outside of work, they’ll guilt you, threaten your job, or both. They don’t care about you, just the work.
There’s zero organization anywhere in this company. Every department operates in chaos, the processes (what little exist) are broken or ignored, and leadership acts like everything is fine. The CEO in particular is completely blind to what’s actually happening. He proudly calls us a “well-oiled machine,” but has no clue how anything functions. It’s honestly terrifying that someone so disconnected is steering this ship straight into the ground.
The culture? Toxic. They preach “we’re all friends here,” but it’s a joke. Departments are constantly at odds, no one trusts anyone, and the tension is thick. Collaboration is a myth, it’s every team for themselves.
Benefits? Abysmal. No real PTO. No paid holidays. If you want Christmas off, you can take it, unpaid. And even then, they’ll still nudge you to work. I’m not kidding. Higher-ups are clocking 300+ hours a month just to keep this sinking ship afloat.
There’s so much more I could say, but in short: the company is falling apart. There’s way too much work for the skeleton crew that’s left, and leadership refuses to acknowledge reality. I wouldn’t recommend working here to even my worst enemy. Avoid this place, you deserve better.
