Young office with a fairly laid back culture, lots of younger people, great location for the office.
Cons
I was an unpaid intern. The co-founders are really young and often lack direction. Worked there for a long period of time when I finished they had the least respect for me, didn't even write me a recommendation lwtter

Thanks for your valuable review. We truly value any feedback left by our current/former team members but this review doesn't seem to be the case.
Based on our internal research on this matter, this review was left by someone NOT associated with AskforTask; as at that time (review posted date: Aug 2015), we were just getting started and had less than 5 full-time team members and NO interns.
If you’re someone who has left this review and disagree with the above, please get in touch with us directly at hr@askfortask.com and we will be more than happy to discuss this with you along with your concerns.
Accepting ownership and being transparent is part of our mission statement at AskforTask. We are committed to maintaining this integral part of our mission here as well.
there is not much good about working here -- they have a great idea that they've taken from other people doing it all over the globe and have somehow managed to bastardize it.
Cons
they yell at you and make you cry, threaten you, don't pay you. they have no company culture and bully people into working for them. a lot of people end up walking out.

Based on our internal research on this review, and the details along with the language used here, we would like to disregard this review as this was NOT left by any past or current employee of AskforTask.
We have concluded that this by one of AskforTask’s competitors who was indulged in these non-ethical activities a few years back and did end up getting caught and blacklisted by multiple review sites.
This issue was faced by some of our other competitors as well who collectively decided to flag, report and complain about the malicious activities that this company was indulging in. We choose not to share the name of the company for two reasons:
1- It would give them more attention that they are looking for through adopting these ways.
2- It’s against our ethical values to engage in devaluing or indulging in any of the unethical and unprofessional activities against our competitors.
We wish to take the high road and only addressed this review so that our current and potential team members would know the truth and are not misguided.
If you do however would like to get further information or evidence regarding this case, please email us at hr@askfortask.com and we would be more than happy to chat further.
Thanks!
Terrible management
They treat you like children
They bully you until you cry
They force you to leave

We always welcome constructive, in-depth and relevant feedback from our current/past team members here at AskforTask, both positive and especially negative; as it helps us in learning and improving ourselves.
But due to the language used in this review and our internal investigation, we would like to disregard it as it was NOT left by an individual associated with the company.
Accepting ownership and being transparent is part of our mission statement at AskforTask. We are committed to maintaining this integral part of our mission here as well.
But in cases like these where it is evident that the review was NOT left by an individual associated with the company, we would urge our readers to please disregard it as it is not fair to the people who ARE associated with the company and call it home.
PS: In case our assessment is wrong, we do invite the writer to send us a note at hr@askfortask.com and we would be more than happy to publicly address our conversation regarding this matter. Thanks!
