Pros
Annual happy hour is a nice escape.
Kontras
Hired-to-fired type of company that preaches values, but rarely exercises them. Glorified call center that promotes friends/lovers/family over equally-qualified employees. Values quantity over quality, in that recruiters are motivated by fear of their daily closely-monitored stats, so much so that they will call phone numbers they know are disconnected just to increase their dials. Rampant favoritism of “rock stars” most often reflects those who have no fresh ideas and are comfortable being delusionally happy sheep in the herd. If you’re not looking to be part of a clique or are not comfortable sucking up to management, watch your back- introverts are often the first to go. You’ll be lucky if you get a year into the company.
