Disappointing

Pros

Love the social impact and the effort put in to illustrate this. Plenty of meaning. Professional image in the industry.

Cons

Uneven pay AND uneven work distribution across similar ranks. Disregard for prior experience. Pretty monotonous and repetitive work. Probably no or little room for innovation for such a business so just be aware of that. Lack of two-way communication. No empathy towards employees as individuals. Low margins business. Consequently low pay low bonus low benefits, although not that bad.

Pros

- Great contribution to social impact. There’s a 20 word minimum for this but I cannot think of other pros.

Cons

- Extremely top down! With little room for employees’ input. From strategy to resource allocation to how and what and when work should be done. - No feedback loop in place to provide reviews about managers. - Undefined and unclear policies with regards to business travel, medical benefits, promotion and salary. - Narrowly focused investments.
