Pros
Decent pay for entry level job.
Cons
Where to begin...? This was the most insane and unprofessional experience I’ve ever witnessed first hand. I moved to Los Angeles, looking for a PR job and was hired at PRStudio on the spot. Boss seemed a little eccentric, but I had worked in fashion PR in NYC previously, so this wasn’t much of a shock for me. I went home to tell my roommate that I landed the job, and she was super excited for me until I told her who I was working for (she also works in PR). Then she proceeded to tell me how she was hired then fired then hired again by this person - before she even started. Immediately I was regretting this decision, but I had a job and forced myself to give it a chance - BIG MISTAKE. The first day, I was given a binder to read for “training” which gave little information with NO guidance or examples of how to apply the training to the job. Then the owner leaves! She was gone for 2-3 days! On my FIRST week. I was sitting at the desk for 8 hours with absolutely no direction. What made this worse was that she called me multiple times throughout the day to SCREAM at me through the phone and ask why I wasn’t getting anything done. If I asked her a question, she would bark through the phone “IT’S IN THE BOOK!” (After assuring me that she would be around to answer any questions). She was so disrespectful and abusive, I couldn’t believe it. I spent one day at lunch in the bathroom just sobbing into the phone to my mom - and I am not the kind of person that does that. Throughout the days I would literally be shaking at my desk because of how scared I was if this woman. Here’s where it gets REALLY nuts. Eventually I had had enough. She called me a couple of hours after getting into the office one day - barking like a maniac through the phone. I believe I hung up on her lol. I called my mom and told her I couldn’t do it anymore and asked her what I should do...so I left my work keys and my company issued phone on my desk. And I left! In the middle of the day. Buh-bye! Now, I am not one to do that! I always give companies at least a month notice when I leave a position, but I could not take it anymore. I felt like this job and that boss was really taking a toll on my mental health. She was more than difficult and demanding, she was totally abusive. Then the calls, to my personal phone started rolling in about an hour after I walked out... She called and texted me DOZENS of times. Attacking my character, my work ethic, how I was raised, attacked the company that my roommate worked for, left me borderline threatening voicemails. Then would insist on paying me my final check. It was CRAZY. She probably texted and called me 50 times within an 2-3 hour period. I eventually told her she needed to contact me through email and I blocked her. I did eventually get paid! But if given the opportunity again, I would not work for this woman for 100k salary. Point blank. Oh I should mention she was fired by two clients while I was there. Anyway! STAY FAR AWAY. Not worth it.
