Pros

The other employees were all very friendly and professional. There is a lot of new technology there to learn and they promote learning.

Cons

They have had several rounds of layoffs, and each time they say that they hope it is the last one, but after 3 rounds in 3 years it seems like they have trouble planning.

Pros

Flexible schedules: Compared to other companies, ZenBusiness has a flexible work setup, but the benefits it brings are mitigated by the countless cons the company has as well.

Cons

- Unhealthy work-life balance: Employees are constantly exhausted and have barely any time to attend to their personal lives because of brutal workloads, unrealistic deadlines, and management constantly disrespecting their boundaries. - Awful compensation: The salaries Zenbusiness pays employees don't reflect how heavy their workloads are or how much experience they have. There are barely any benefits as well, and all of them aren't that great. - Toxic leadership: The leadership is incredibly hostile and shows zero respect to everyone around them. Every decision they make is exclusively for their own benefit, and often comes at the expense of employees. They speak in an unprofessional manner towards everyone they talk to, and when things don't go their way, they insult and harass employees. - No room for growth: Regardless of how long you've been with the company or how consistently you perform at a high level, none of your hard work is ever going to be rewarded. Employees aren't provided with any opportunities to advance, given any room to grow, or rewarded with bonuses when they do well. - Controlling management: Management monitors your every move, tells you how to do your job, and constantly meddles with your work, which can make even the simplest tasks frustrating to accomplish.
