Pros

lot of energetic employees who are so exited about the job and, the companies mission statement. The CEO makes you believe the sky is the limit. People work hard but they do it with passion and love. It's a great place to work if you are a person who likes contributing but can not make a mistake. (unrealistic I know!).

Cons

- You are fired for making a tiny error. CEO always talks about how, "we admit our mistakes and we learn from them" but that's not how other departments are functioning. Specially the HR department. - The retention rate in the HR department is a joke. They have fired 5 - 6 recruiters within the past few months. No warming was given. - You are always feeling unstable and any day might be your last day. If two HR associates sit you down in a room, know it is your last day. - they don't give you a chance to learn from your mistake. - I worked in HR and it was amazing to me how, the CHO was so nice to everyone else but treated her own department like dirt. - She talked down to us, and made us feel like subhuman. You are not allowed to speak at meetings. If you disagree with her, you are fired the next day. - i've seen people who love the company get fired for no reason or for making one little mistake. Instead of giving people guidance and another chance, she would rather have you get you fired. - She wants to be surrounded by people who look like models.
