Pros

flexibility on start and end time

Cons

My experience at this company was overwhelmingly negative. Management was rarely available to answer questions, and when you did get their attention, they often had no real answers or willingness to help. Workload is unevenly distributed, leaving some employees overloaded while others have very little responsibility. The culture relies heavily on toxic positivity, you’re expected to “play along” with the narrative. If you don’t feed into it, they won’t formally fire you, but you’ll quickly feel pushed out through subtle bullying, exclusion, or pressure to leave on your own. There is no genuine room for advancement or promotion, and the company itself feels like it’s struggling to stay afloat. Most employees are unhappy, and the gossip-heavy environment makes the workplace feel hostile rather than collaborative. Unless you’re completely new to the workforce and simply need any experience you can get, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

Pros

A few nice coworkers and completely casual attire is allowed (flip flops and tank tops even)

Cons

Owner is a childish narcissist that has his favorites and is misogynistic and highly inappropriate. Have a problem with that? HR is a singular individual who sits in an open office a few feet away from his desk, so you may as well be reporting his behavior directly to him. The upstairs office lacks any ventilation despite the fact that the company exclusively creates, stores, and sells scented and potentially toxic products that can make you feel sick after spending 40 hours in the small space. I could go on forever, but it's not even worth my time.
