Pros

I am stealing this review from a colleague because it's simply too eloquent and accurate to improve upon, particulary in the most recent months at this company: Communication! They love it. They hold a meeting about having a meeting, and still manage to leave everyone more confused than a chameleon in a bag of Skittles. Better have a meeting to clarify! Mandatory team-building activities! Cringe-worthy events where they force us to bond by writing our fears and sharing with your coworkers over zoom. I'd rather swim with sharks wearing a meat suit than participate in another one of those. Bonuses are a part of compensation- but just don't expect them to be paid. Paid once in last 4 years.

Cons

Management always talking about "open-door policies" and "ask me anything" but it's like searching for Bigfoot or Atlantis when you actually need their help. If you've always wondered what it's like to work in a circus, here is your chance.

Pros

Your paycheck does get deposited.

Cons

Most toxic work place imaginable. Total reorganizations often. Constant turnover due to horrific "leadership team". Complete disaster. Everyone good has left or is in the process of leaving. No job security, miserable staff barely drags themselves to work 2-3 days a week (unless managers, then only for company meetings).
