Pros
The starting pay was good, but you practically have to fight for any kind of raise, while some of your peers have gotten several in the last year, even if your performance is the same. Given a lot of freedom. Small company, so many people have an influence in how it’s run. There are a lot of nice, genuine people working there just doing their best. The regular employees are the ones that make it good.
Kontras
This is honestly the most disorganized company I have ever worked for. You’ll be hired as one thing and end up doing something completely different, but those responsibilities are not communicated effectively. Human Resources is a joke. There was no measure of performance, no performance reviews, no scheduled raises. The CEO constantly schedules all of these meetings with you but doesn’t show up and blames you for not reminding him. There are managers who are so disrespectful and rude and the CEO knows that they’re a problem, but refuses to fire them. There are shady/illegal practices going on that the CEO condones and encourages. The sexism is very obvious too. There was another review on here about sexism that has since been deleted, but ask just about any woman that works there and they’ll tell you. I also agree with another reviewer who said that the CEO doesn’t have people skills. I have no idea how he has made it this far in a business that is meant to be built around relationships. The work/life balance is sometimes fine, and then other times, I would be getting phone calls at 8pm and was expected to answer them off the clock. I have also heard various comments from upper management that are absolutely considered racist and prejudice towards certain groups of people.
