The Most Toxic Environment I’ve Ever Worked In

Pros

- There are a handful of great people that work there. - The company does interesting and meaningful work.

Cons

- Benefits are overly expensive and subpar. - Communication is non-existent. - The company finds any and every reason not to give raises or promotions. - The company recently forced all employees to burn through their PTO (while employees still had to work to get their jobs done) under the explanation of “saving costs,” "avoiding layoffs," and “making the balance sheet look better.” This continued for over four months, causing a significant number of employees to end up with substantial negative leave balances. - There is an active and well-known culture of lying and throwing anyone and everyone under the bus in order to not make yourself look bad. - People that need to be held accountable are not and others are made to be scape goats. - The company operated under a culture of "everything is an emergency." That solicits over reactions and must be dealt with immediately, causing stress and constant errors and re-work. - The pace and making everything a competing priority, is completely unsustainable.

CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

- A few good and competent coworkers. - Flexible schedules for most positions. - As long as you don't complain, there is little oversight for most positions.

Cons

- Toxic, stressful environment full of lying, backstabbing, and illegal discrimination. - Lazy and incompetent management. - No goals for the business beyond "grow." - No communication or transparency. - Poor benefits to start with that will be cut without warning or justification. - Honesty and hard work are actively discouraged. - Lying to and misleading customers are actively encouraged.

Pros

-Working From Home -Nice environment with free drinks

Cons

QA Management is the worst, director throws stuff at people, acts like a child, never in the office, forces people to do Halloween activity and obsessed about winning it in the name of team work. However, he gets away with it. No evaluations for managers here. You will be forced to present a class Fridays plus expect you to finish work while they require you to attend unproductive meetings on Fridays. Health insurance option in this company is subpar, you will spend a lot of money for co-pay and not much covered especially if you have family. Please ask for more money when you apply because what they pay you is what they take away for giving you a cheap insurance coverage. They don't care about your family. If you are single, this is a great place to start. but don't stick around for too long, you won't have much opportunity outside of what you do. Technology and skills you will learn in this company is so outdated and you won't be competitive when you are done with this company.
