First off, I could write a novel about all the cons....but I'll stick to the main points. The pay is low, the management/way they communicate is a joke, and it's horrible how they have phased out the Quality Control (QC) department in the Orlando office.
When I started here last year in QC, there were about 30 editors at one point. Then after December, they started laying off pretty much all of us in groups. By the end of April, there were under 10 editors left. We were essentially told that all job opportunities in the company were basically in Jacksonville and other departments within the company and it's been heavily implied that the QC department would eventually just die off (at least in the Orlando office). For most of 2017, there has been just a sense of foreboding dread hanging over the department.
Anyway, they tell us less than a month ago that they aren't looking to eliminate any further QC positions. Or at least that we would have some warning if this changed. Let's just say if you are going to allow an employee to be able to work from home, it looks pretty shady and unprofessional to lay them off less than a week later... and to play it off like it was "a sudden decision" that you had no possible advance knowledge of. Just saying :)
With all that said, I hope that everyone who has had the unfortunate experience of being laid off by this place has been /is able to move on to better opportunities.
