Pros

Relaxed place to work with nice co- workers, usually has food available

Cons

The founder of this company is too hands on and is singlehandedly bringing down the company. He will fire anyone at anytime at the drop of the hat with no reason. The company is continually hiring and firing. No job stability. Benefits are horrible and very expensive. $800 a month for a family of 3 and that’s not including dental. The founder/boss is the leader of the sales team but has horrible sales skills, he’s a lawyer not a sales guy. Only knows how to make promises to clients that are true and drastically lower the price in order to make a sale.

Pros

Good people on the team and the ability to earn money quickly

Cons

The culture felt extremely toxic, with leadership often creating an environment driven by fear, favoritism, and constant pressure rather than support and development. Leadership and executives are in it only for themselves. Work-life balance was virtually nonexistent. Employees were regularly expected to work holidays, often staying until 10 or 11 PM with little appreciation or recognition for the sacrifice. Long hours became the expectation rather than the exception. I was also disappointed by how customers were treated. There was often a significant disconnect between what was promised and what was actually delivered, and many decisions seemed focused on short-term gains instead of creating a positive customer experience. Behind the scenes, there were practices and conversations that made me uncomfortable and did not align with the level of transparency and professionalism I would expect from a company. The turnover was high, morale was low, and many employees seemed burned out. While there are some good people working there, the overall environment made it difficult to feel valued or optimistic about the future.
