Pros

No pros. Would have given 0 stars if possible.

Cons

• Vacation days are only applicable AFTER a year of working with the company. I should have realized this was a red flag already. • No secretary. All office management has to be dealt with individually such as answering phone, throwing out trash, delivering shipments, etc. • No human resources department. • No overtime but instead will replace weekdays. Overtime is paid with 1.5x the original pay. Replacing your weekdays with the overtime hours does not equal that and they are taking advantage of it! • Horrible management of all departments – no one even knows what their titles are. • No yearly review and had no ability to negotiate with the raise. Compensation reflected poorly with my entitled responsibilities. • No room to grow. Most employees have been working in the same positions for more than three years. • Belittled by many and does not feel respected AT ALL.

Pros

There are a few select coworkers who are very nice & great to be around, unfortunately I can’t say that for everyone who works there. Other than that no other pros

Cons

Wouldn’t recommend my worst enemy to work here. - They don’t care about their employees , everyone is just a “body” (as they say internally) - One owner is extremely moody, rude and walks past you as if you don’t exist. The other owner seems to have anger management problems (IMO) and talks down and disrespects people through emails. Everyone just accepts his temper and just says “that’s just the way he is” - Bathrooms are absolutely disgusting , I feel embarrassed for them. - Company is full of nepotism. There’s free daily lunch for their favorites & family. - The product is hideous and not something you should feel proud to work on. It’s all product that just gets sold on major discount at Macys and other stores that people nowadays don’t shop at - The weirdest part - no one speaks at all in the office. It’s dead silent all day , which just goes to show the company “culture”. I’ve never worked anywhere where no one speaks it was truly a shock to me - No contracts. When I started I was given a “contract” by my supervisor but turns out the supervisor had written the contract themselves bc the company “doesn’t give contracts”. Very shady practice to make it seem to new hires that they’re a normal company. - Pay is very low. You need to review EVERY paycheck. they don’t have HR or payroll person & there’s constant mess ups. Your pay amount will not be right and if you don’t say anything they don’t fix it on their own. - They use archaic software systems and your job will essentially be to just put things in their system over and over again. No new tasks, nothing new to learn just use the system and repeat
