Pros
My manager was not the problem. The paychecks arrived on time.
Cons
- I was promised flexibility during the interview, including working from home a few days each week and opportunities to take on special projects and drive improvements.
- Once I arrived, those promises disappeared. Everything was office based, and the special projects turned out to be nothing but empty words.
- I watched people remain stuck for years because there was no genuine path for advancement despite how aggressively it was promoted during hiring.
- The career growth discussed in interviews simply does not exist once you are inside.
- The whole experience felt like a complete bait and switch, and I wasted the first few months hoping things would improve.
- By the fourth month, it was painfully clear that nothing was going to change.
