Pros
TRAINOR provides company laptops to all employees, and everyone uses the same brand. Previous employees of TRAINOR have gone on to do great work.
Cons
The management staff wants to hear feedback but cannot handle changes well. I expressed my feedback to management before leaving. The work-from-home policy worked out of trust, and trust issues within the company made working from home difficult. I was unaware that there is only a New Hartford office for regular employees when interviewing. It was challenging to complete work with mandatory distractions in the office, and I often spent more time outside of my designated hours working. As someone who finished their work promptly, the micromanagement was not a sign of dedication but a warning sign of not trusting employees. I was dissatisfied with the mentality of gaining knowledge over a higher paycheck. I would have preferred a pay increase over some of the additional perks provided. During my time, multiple employees quit, which made for a stressful environment and lots of extra work. While marketing is fast-paced, work-life balance was important to me, and I did not feel it was as valued by the company leaders. I put in the extra time and effort and did not feel my work was recognized. The environment aligned with my work style, but I did not feel the work hard, play harder mentality aligned with all of management.
