Terrible company in St Louis

Pros

The building is close to home. I can look out the window and dream of a future job elsewhere.

Cons

Very hard to trust anyone here. Everyone is in corporate mode with their hands out trying to get something they haven't earned. It's very easy to rub shoulders with the brothers and get what you need. HR continues to surprise me daily with the smiles and plain corruption by lying to everyone who they try to push out the door. I see people quitting or being fired. They offered me good pay and a office before I was hired. I'm out in the open with everyone and isn't what they offered me. I'm looking to leave ASAP.
