Great Co-workers, Terrible Management

Pros

- Motivating business objective of working with cancer treatment - Good location in Chicago - Relaxing start up culture

Cons

- Recently hired managers with no practical management experience - Managers are quick to terminate their people, rather than work with them - Unprofessional HR department with a thin skin (recent terminations that had no cause) - Office getting cramped real quick with new hires (and no planning on where to locate everyone) - No career opportunities. Company only interested in outside candidates

Mess of a Company

Pros

The health insurance is great and the unlimited PTO combined with free onsite cafe almost makes this place worth it.

Cons

Expectations are highly unrealistic especially considering that much of the company's employees are recent grads that don't have the experience of senior level employees yet are expected to perform on par with little to no training and with a quarter of the pay. Management is full of deceptive, power-hungry, narcissistic individuals that only care about themselves looking good and not about the long term successes of their teams. Environment is chaotic and extremely toxic. Interactions are unprofessional and veer into bullying territory. Nothing gets done in a timely manner because there's too many big egos that hold back progress on projects leading to tight deadlines and late nights/weekends without the promise of a raise in pay. Career growth is non-existent unless you give up your personal life and work 24/7 to cater to their every whim. Cherry on top is no 401K matching. Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere for opportunities.

Leadership is the problem

Pros

Decent benefits, physical office is nice

Cons

Leadership are amateurish and lack the skills to drive their teams to success. Poor organization and management result in high turnover or jobs going to external contractors. Longterm employees are treated like members of leadership by no other virtue than tenure and make things noisy, unprofessional, and overly complicated. CEO seems focused only on the bottom line. Teams that desperately need the opportunity to grow and attract new talent are stifled, which results in poor experiences for both employees and customers. Pay is low for the market and personal growth is challenging to the point of nonexistent.
