Pros
You can learn a lot—if you’re persistent enough to extract clear answers in an environment where guidance is scarce and clarity is optional. Most knowledge comes from trial, error, and sheer determination, not structured training or leadership support. To be fair, the actual work itself can be genuinely engaging and rewarding. Unfortunately, getting past the roadblocks created by dysfunctional management feels like trying to crack a coconut with your bare teeth.
Cons
Upper management operates under the delusion that mass resignations are just part of the process — as if losing large chunks of staff simultaneously isn’t a glaring red flag. They seem convinced the problem lies with “lazy” employees rather than recognizing the burnout and frustration caused by their own leadership failures. The truth is, most people do care — but it’s hard to stay motivated when you're underpaid, underinformed, and undervalued. Daily expectations are murky at best, and accountability seems to be a one-way street. Employees are expected to give their all for wages that don’t even come close to covering basic living expenses. Meanwhile, most members of upper management and the core team — who literally live rent-free — are baffled as to why people can’t survive on $16 an hour after being lured in with the promise of a $55K salary. Their disconnect from what a livable wage looks like is truly staggering. If you're someone who values clarity, respect, and being paid fairly for your time and effort, you might want to keep looking.
