Pros

Some people there are nice. Their office is easy to commute to.

Cons

Lack of communication, planning, and cooperation is incredible for a company that has been operating as long as this. Planning projects and events is laughable and needs major restructuring. You will be expected to work unreasonable hours during their "busy season" without any compensation for the extra time you're working (yes weekends are included) The blame game that is played at joonbug is abysmal. It's a lot of finger pointing without the chance to explain things to one another... which leads to more confusion They want employees to work at 200% effort and will pay them for 30% effort and expect a thank you at the end of the day. CEO punches holes in walls during the work day.

This is correct there is 7 weeks of intense work, then it is a very reasonable schedule. The comments on planning I cannot comment on, but I will say we are the largest New Years Eve company in the world, last year we did 170 events in 10 cities for 110k people, that is an extremely hard task, no one on earth does it, I am sure we can improve but we try our best.
