Decent Pay, But High Demands and Overworked

Tax specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay for starting out. Decent benefits. Office campus is nice. Usually standard 8 hour day (mostly 8:30-5:30).

Cons

The training is not in depth. SOPs are laughable sparse, or so bloated that they are fairly unusable. Lots of mandatory overtime. Hard deadlines that almost impossible to reach consistently. Will put you on a PIP with no real support on how to improve job function. Shifting focus on "everyone on site having knowledge in all departments" instead of consistent thorough training for the department you are in. Ramp up in production can happen suddenly with little notice. Promised work from home availability for weather emergencies, and immediately back tracked. Have to schedule your own trainings, but all trainings are mandatory.

Make good money but at the cost of mental health

Chad (CEO) leads with fear and everyone is always on edge that they will loose their job. Worked there only 5 years and never once referred a friend or loved one cause it brings misery.
