Pros

Good Pay, Manageable Work, Flexible Schedule.

Cons

The company seems to be having constant financial issues. Employees are constantly being fired or quitting unexpectedly. Instead of compensating staff appropriately, the work of employees and contractors past gets piled onto whoever remains with 0 pay increase. Either this, or new contractors are hired to repeat the cycle. There is a HUGE issue with micromanagement. No room for growth because the company tends to hire mostly contractors who they mistreat because contractors don't have the same rights as employees. No benefits, no job security, no PTO.

Pros

The health insurance wasn't a nightmare to navigate.

Cons

Blavity's micromanagement was absolutely suffocating. I literally could not send a client email without someone questioning my word choice or demanding to know why I included that person on the thread. Every single decision got routed through some approval chain and nobody would even explain why they said no, just "not approved" and silence. I started to feel like my manager was waiting for me to fail, like the hiring process was a mistake and now I had to prove myself every single day all over again. By my third month there I completely stopped suggesting anything because every idea got was the kind of slow trust erosion where you don't notice it happening until you realize you've already mentally checked out.
