Sometimes There’s Free Snacks

Pros

Good comp for management. Annual bonus. Sometimes there’s free snacks.

Cons

Task-oriented managers struggle at effectively managing people. Maskless closed door meetings with Covid spreading through the office. No flexibility - pulling teeth to WFH. They are supposedly implementing a hybrid schedule. They watch the clock and will let you know if you’re leaving “too early” even if your work is done for the day. Culture non-existent. No development. Poor corporate communication. They sent out an email recognizing Mental Health Month with three days left in the month.

Pros

Sometimes free snacks but that’s it.

Cons

No true open door policy for HR or management. Bad pay. No culture. Management and HR do not care about employees. Absolutely no work life balance. Expired thank you cookies for employee appreciation day. No where to grow a career. They do not make you feel appreciated and under value their employees. Animosity towards employees who ask for a raise.
