Pros

Free coffee and cake for birthdays/anniversary celebrations

Cons

No work life balance, management will get angry if you leave for lunch or take any personal time off even if you use vacation days. Upper management is so disconnected from the day to day, however when they come to visit everyone dresses up and acts professional. Upper management also thinks cursing and yelling at employees or threatening them is the best way to motivate. The do it or else we'll find someone who will mentality is very real. The turnover in this place is crazy. If someone has made it a year, that is considered a long tenure. Most leave after 6 months or are fired. They fire employees without any warning and at the drop of a hat and then laugh about it later. Firing an employee and over 100% turnover is a direct reflection of a failure in management.

Great in finding contracts for contract workers. They got me a remote job that allowed me to work from my home in the Midwest for a job in California.

Can be hard to reach at times.

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
