Sweatshop and wrongful discharge - Anonymous employee Rain Employee Review

- Staffing strategy was based on hiring recent graduates and forcing them to work overtime (sweatshop economics), which made it challenging to support existing client work that required certain skill-sets and no time for training - Senior leadership was heavy on micro-management and inexperienced in running a profitable digital service business - Lack of clarity/constantly changing demands around roles and responsibility, reporting structure, client rates, job expectations, and priorities - Incompetent staff as a result of staffing strategy, poor company reputation, and too low budgets for hiring - Poor staff morale due to long over-time, unpredictable and moody leadership, lack of client management, and lack of employee value - Cramped and hot/poorly ventilated and uncomfortably small office (basically a room with a bunch of shared tables and chairs for the staff - but a well air-conditioned/heated office to the side for the partners), with a shady bathroom down the hall - Was dismissed for no reason, given only 2 weeks notice, and given no severance pay, after winning new business and working regular overtime - Final pay check and expense check were paid months late
