If you are a hard worker -- please skip this place
Pros
Some of the people are nice Some people work hard Flexibility if you need to run errands, etc.
Cons
- "Promote" people and promise raises, then refuse to implement raise for several months (but of course expect the extra work to be done) - "annual" raises usually several months late (depending on favorite status--see below) - overload the good workers and then berate them as lazy if they ask for help - Don't pay for the days you go through training; I took PTO from my previous job to train here and was never paid for it; heard from others they had the same issue - HR tells people that if a coworker mentions they are even thinking of looking for another job their first duty is to report that person to HR - Company hosts lavish all-you-can-drink parties but won't pay for any training or development (although it will be promised) - Favoritism is the worst I've ever seen. Compensation is not based on performance but rather on looks, age, and personality. Young ladies in their 20s (preferable blond) tend to do best. The CEO meets young women around town and invites them up to a manager's office where the manager is instructed to hire her on the spot. And of course train her from scratch as she has little to no business skills. - Nice to receive Christmas bonus -- until you find out the favorites get the Christmas bonus +Apple watches +jewelry, etc. - Women are afraid to announce their engagements/marriage as it might sabotage their status as a favorite - Staff is cherry-picked to go on lavish vacations under the guise of "work travel." All-expenses-paid vacation to private Florida island for "work" in case they ran into a potential client - several people spend most of their day gossiping or chit-chatting. After pandemic the president demanded everyone return to office 5 days a week because he didn't trust people to work; since he hadn't cared about productivity prior to that, it was clearly about control - After pandemic we were told remote workers would not be allowed to receive promotions and implied that their raises would be in question too, yet two people who have gone remote since then have received promotions (young/blond. . . . ) - Career opportunities are zero General warning: I've read all the previous reviews and am pretty sure I know who left each of them. The positive ones are from those on the favorite list who receive great pay and those extra bonuses. I've also reviewed the reported salaries a couple times. Since they suddenly doubled within a few months, I doubt their veracity. Unless things have drastically changed since I left, the people who actually work and keep the business running day-to-day make $30-40K. That includes leads and managers.
