Pros
- You'll learn what you don't want out of a job - You'll learn to never disregard high turnover rates or red flags in an interview again - Having multiple clients and getting to work on websites for different industries is fun...when you're actually kept in the loop
Cons
- Terrible communication within the company; senior employees assume you know things or should know to ask about certain things and then get angry when (shocker!) you drop the ball because you have no means of knowing what information you need (e.g. not telling you there's a checklist to follow but getting angry that you didn't ask about it despite not even knowing it existed...even though you just asked what specific things you needed to do to complete the task) -Open offices are proven to decrease productivity while increasing stress, and you'll really feel it working here -Expect conflicting instructions because no one is on the same page - If you're really lucky, you'll get randomly pulled into meetings with clients with no prior warning or time to prepare. Nothing on your calendar, no email, just a heads up two minutes before they arrive (or when they're already there!). - No retirement plan
