Pros

Good industry research experience, legacy knowledge (before layoffs), work-life balance, and benefits used to be good

Cons

Pay is "competitive" (bad). CEO has a track record of - and is known for - racist, sexist, and homophobic comments (sometimes on camera); thought the Cannabis industry boom was permanent & sustainable, leading to multiple waves of layoffs after Cannabis prices crashed in 2022; and insists on using warfare language for developing garden soil and management decisions.

Pros

Weekly pay, 2 of the supervisors are sweet.
