Pros

Most people are nice. Pride in the Crayola brand is evident.

Cons

No growth opportunity. Culture is taught but not followed, don't share your concerns in a conversation. Advancement is perplexing as employees are pawns in a poorly played game. If you do great work, you are rewarded with more work.

Pros

Descent benefits; fun products to work on; most co-workers are good employees and helpful to work with

Cons

There is zero work-life balance; salary doesn’t compensate for the number of overtime hours needed just to stay on top of job responsibilities; too many meetings leaving little time to read and answer emails, company won’t replace workers who have left, leaving their workload to be dumped on remaining employees who are already working between 10-14 hours a day; forget about taking vacation and not looking at emails...welcome back to the office with thousands of unread emails waiting for you; upper management just yesses you to death but doesn’t actually do anything to improve workload or acknowledge your hard work; salary sucks when you sit down and figure how much you are really earning vs the number of hours you are working; certain employees with bad behavior are not reprimanded while other employees (who are hard workers) get terminated for no good reasons other than for the company to save some money; there is so much wrong. it’s just bad. I feel sorry for the employees still there and dealing with that crap.
