      Crazy and not in a fun way

      Pros

      Hard to think of any pros but I guess it's that inexperienced people get the chance to run projects and businesses. And there's curiosity and energy to explore new tactics and industries. But the repercussions of both are severe and painful for everyone.

      Cons

      Like working with children who have never been told no. Weird cult of personality around the owners. There's a small group of lifers and everyone else is disposable and treated that way. Ugly and toxic environment with a revolving door of employees.

      Is this the 9th layer of hell (with fancy art)?

      Pros

      Great building and pay is reasonable if you negotiated it. When the place was empty and without people it was a pleasant experience. My team were great people, doing their best and really trying to make the place bearable (the impossible mission).

      Cons

      Ownership treated everyone like slaves and had them work at their whim. Any thought that you may have some ownership and control of even a small item is a lie - don't fall for it! If you negotiated great pay then good on you, if you didn't it's hard luck. The Owners start with being rude and condescending, which empowers people down the chain to do more of the same. Once the owners don't like you (personally or professionally) you may as well leave, or be prepared for hell on earth. At least two of my team quit on the spot due to bullying and no one seemed to care. I quit because I cared.

      Pros

      Not really sure I can think of any at this time.

      Cons

      A recent job for one of the founders explains all the PR work that has been going on. Fix the problem not try to cover it. Geez. "Oversee social media activity to ensure that the Co-Founder is viewed in a positive light at all times"
