Cons
The organization relies too heavily on unpaid interns every summer to accomplish tasks that should be completed by full-time staff. They work as many hours as the full-time staff and some have an equal amount of responsibility but do not receive compensation of any kind. In addition, the employees are extremely underpaid and overworked. The starting salary of some full-time employees was so extremely low, you could make more working at a part-time job. Bonuses are added into contracts to make the low salaries more appealing but during employment, I did not receive those bonuses. Furthermore, there is no overtime pay or compensation of any kind for working more than 40 hours a week and during the season employees work way over 40 hours.
On top of little pay, the employees are expected to pay and or proved their own equipment. Laptops, computers, softwares, were not covered until recently and not everyone is supplied with said equipment. Even though some equipment is now provided, it is the lowest grade and cheapest quality on the market.
Most upper management is difficult to work with. Taking notes and criticism is only tolerated one way. Upper management is extremely out of touch and is unaware of how much their employees work or even do. In order for this organization to succeed in the future, the highest management needs to step down.
