Pros

The original product was quality

Cons

The extent of micromanagement, manipulation, abuse and toxicity that occurs at this work place is heinous. The CEO gives up all control to every last task and then swoops in last minute to micromanage every detail and put down the entire company. The lines between personal and professional are constantly blurred with the CEO speaking to you from a “friend perspective” and then a “boss perspective”. Everything is done under the guise of “female empowerment and support” with the actuality of it being anything but. The CEO will call meetings last minute and speak for hours and hours with no agenda, going on tangents into personal issues etc. often manipulating you into agreeing to things you would never agree to in your right mind. The list is endless. Run away from this company. The turnover at this company is astronomical.

Pros

I really enjoyed my time with the company. The team worked well together – it was a fast-paced work environment, which I liked. Management/CEO planned a lot of fun events – celebrating birthdays – employee lunches, etc. Met with managers or CEO as needed if I had questions and felt heard and supported. I loved having dogs in the office - I liked the fully stocked kitchen – I liked the friendly team - I liked all the benefits and perks – you even get your birthday off with pay!

Cons

COVID made things more challenging as the team was unable to work as closely as it did before COVID. Communication was more difficult during COVID with certain employees having to work from home.

Pros

Thankful I was able to leave

Cons

The organization is an awful place to work. The Careers page falsely represents the authentic withinus experience. While in the interview process you will likely experience odd interview times (evening/weekends) and interview length with the CEO. At least 2 hours each time. Once offered a role you will be presented with unlawful agreements. The first few days will seem nice, but once you are there for a minute you will notice the disfunction and toxicity. Any role within the organization does not provide anyone with promised career progression. Highly recommend this company if you want commit career suicide.
