Pros
- On the corporate side, you had more flexibility than the sales side which was great, so you did have time to enjoy the perks they offer. - Lots of good opportunities for charity work. - Unlimited/unchecked PTO - Casual dress code - Drinking at your desk
Cons
- The pay was VERY low. Mexico trip are great and all, but if one actually made market-value you could afford to go on your own. Also, knowing that Luke K. is in the building doesn't actually pay my bills. - Very male-dominated and white dominated. If you're female or not white you better learn how to tokenize yourself or like their likes (video games, craft beer are good starters). - Sexist undertones. I don't think this was intentional, but that still didn't mean it didn't happen. - Very youth dominated. Although this was sometimes a good thing, the employees there felt like they were entitled to a reward for doing their job, like the stereotypical millennial. Nothing wrong with that if you can get away with it, but it seeped through into other aspects, like the fragile egos of the men. Even if they were incorrect you had to handle them with kid-gloves to tell them. - You would have no idea if there were issues until review time, and almost in a back-stab kind of way, which the´culture encouraged. See above about handling people with kid gloves. It was frowned upon to critique or correct anyone day-to-day but during review time, it was a free for all so everything was a surprise. - Perception was weighted more than actual facts/reality
