Pros

Still some dedicated people hanging on, but don't count on their help. Pay is above-average. Sometimes a Friday afternoon social.

Cons

Fear-based management, constant departmental shuffling, upper management in-fighting and maneuvering means you never know what your job will be or whether you're qualified to do it. Infrastructure is laughable: IT is practically non-existent, getting basics like computers, printers, keys or offices can take months. Projects are always on insanely accelerated schedules, so work is sloppy and post-launch activities are mostly putting out fires, appeasing customers. Turnover is high, especially in marketing and project management, so vision is 3 feet in front, i.e., what will you trip over next. Raises and bonuses are minimal, PTO policies are for the company's benefit. Ethics are definitely frowned upon, except for the mindless, repetitive online learning courses.

Pros

Good for phlebotomy experience Meet interesting people Learn to keep plates spinning Good health benefits, but not enough to outweigh the health impacts Learn working in a high-stress fast-paced work environment

Cons

Have to unlearn working in a high-stress fast-paced work environment High school drama and toxicity, management is the prom king/queen Cliquey dramatic management team Reneged agreements Playing favorites, rules for thee but not for me Private employee info gets spread, often by those who are relied upon to keep it private No work life balance or boundaries, and it's an admitted and perpetually unaddressed fault Have to be made to feel guilty for wanting to leave production, get a break, or go to the bathroom High turnover "Is everyone else working as hard as I am?",-Everyone, and eventually you
