Low pay for the high workload and expectations Not appreciative management Useless meetings that steal everyone’s time

As a woman, I was excited to work for a women-majority company. I was massively disappointed to find that the women leaders fill every single negative stereotype for women in the workplace: inability to take accountability, micromanaging, passive aggressive, cliquey, cheap, and two-faced. If you're not any of these things, you won't fit in here. To this list I will add: being obsessed with pointless details that matter to absolutely no one except them. Forcing others to redo their work simply so it's the way they like it makes them feel powerful and important. It's sad, really. This place has the most unrealistic expectations you'll ever encounter. Everyone does work for multiple clients, sometimes as many as 10 clients. In the midst of this insanity, the client leads should be your biggest fans and supporters, acknowledging how much work you do and encouraging you. Instead, everything you do is nitpicked, criticized and constantly told it's not good enough. You're stressed to the max, doing the work of three people, and yet every day you're told you're not doing enough. Everything you do gets picked apart. You'll have so much anxiety doing anything because you know no matter what, the client leads will find something wrong with it and make you feel stupid. All for what? For a spammy email that someone will delete the second it hits their inbox. It's pointless, unfulfilling work.
