Pros

The employees there are supportive and helpful. When you ask for help, or if you make a mistake (largely due to lack of training, and they know that) they are very understanding.

Cons

Owner. Bottom line. He insulted me in the interview, yet I took the job our of desperation. He was unprepared and busy on his computer and rummaging through papers on his very mess desk. He is condescending, would yell at me from across the building (not addressing me, just starts talking/yelling), call me by several wrong names, doesn't appreciate his employees, doesn't listen to his employees, over charges clients, blames other, provides no training, has no regard for personal space, is quick to fire people (I left on my own accord), and has a terrible reputation with other businesses. Salary isn't enough to stay here, especially when he tries to text you at 3am about his calendar schedule.

Pros

My time at Local Concept has been an exceptionally delightful journey. From the moment I joined the team, I was embraced with open arms, enveloped in a warm atmosphere that made each day a joy. The workplace culture cultivated a strong sense of camaraderie and support, making it feel like a second home. The owner, Michael, infused the workplace with his infectious humor, often taking moments during working hours to share his amusing stories, allowing us to relax and recharge. Michael's genuine care was evident as he made multiple visits to my workspace on my last day, expressing his disappointment at my leave. It was a touching gesture that truly resonated with me. He is not only a great person but also exudes a remarkable sense of style. Moreover, my coworkers were always there for each other, whether it was enjoying lunch together or unwinding with drinks after work on Fridays. Even after leaving Local Concept, we've managed to stay connected. I must also mention the unwavering support and kindness of Beatriz, the accounting department manager, who was always ready to assist with any challenges we faced, her constant smile radiating warmth and positivity. Local Concept holds a special place in my heart.

Cons

While Michael's efforts to create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere were admirable, occasionally they could inadvertently slow down our workflow. However, this never posed a significant issue, as we always rallied together as a team to support one another. Despite any minor disruptions, our collaborative spirit remained unwavering, ultimately contributing to a positive work environment.
