Pros

Constantly changing and evolving environment

Cons

During my 2 years there, I saw a large number of young creatives come and go. It's an environment that judges performance based on appearance, political beliefs, and religion. The last 9 months have especially been terrible with most tenured employees with 2 or more years of experience either leaving suddenly or being replaced by cheaper less-experienced new hires. For a Lubbock business that prides itself with being a fixture of downtown, they prefer to hire remote employees. Profit is more important than people or their product. They are the marketing equivalent of snake-oil peddlers. Avoid this sinking ship, if you can.

Pros

Remote work and friendly culture

Cons

They move people around like a jigsaw puzzle but no one is really all that qualified to do anything. Unfortunately the culture is a Lubbock (smaller town) clique and a little bit of a joke. They think they're primed for the "big leagues" but can't see the forest for the trees. It's hard to take many people seriously here once you see past the "happy culture" facade - if you're serious about growing in your profession, you're better off finding somewhere else to work if you can.
