Pros

- I like my peers, they're funny and young (not Courtney)

Cons

where do i start.. - This job is remote, but you are forced to ONLY work from home. You can't even go two minutes down the street. As if we're working on some ultra private government content. Let me reiterate, YOU CANNOT WORK ANYWHERE OTHER THAN YOUR HOME. As if we are quarantined. - 30 minute unpaid lunch that you have to work off at the end of the day (as if we are minimum wage service workers not working a 9-5) - Extremely low pay, pay us like dogs - Leadership has a huge stick up their butts - You are basically on call all the time, they expect you to respond within 10 minutes of any message, and if you dont, you're in trouble
