Pros
working remotely (but as someone who needs to get out of my house and work from a coffee shop or the park, this isn't even really a perk. The nature of the job requires you to be in a quiet, private room all day to conduct video interviews, spontaneous zoom meetings (video on always), and phone calls.
Cons
- The head of the company and the other execs close to her are very much of the "work is life" mindset. - They'll expect you to work outside hours without additional pay (the hours are already difficult: 10-7 pm EST) -They discourage you from taking a break. The people in power very obviously don't take breaks and they expect you to be available whenever they try to reach you. (At any moment of the day you are expected to be able to hop into a video-on zoom meeting in a moment's notice) -If you don't want to work free overtime, your manager will use that against you and treat you poorly for it. You'll be scolded for "not being a team player" and "not working hard enough" -You are discouraged from taking off, even when sick. I once had to take three days off because I was very ill with COVID and it was insinuated by the head of the company that doing this showed I don't care enough about the job; they clearly had zero care about my health/how I was doing. -Last but not least, they are extremely understaffed, and the head of the company says yes to casting opportunities without considering if it will be too much for her team to handle. This leads to an incredibly stressful and toxic work environment in which employees are extremely overworked.
