Pros

Pay was ok, nice enough office

Cons

I was supposedly hired because the production/ops team were flat out and needed assistance, but out of the 8 hours I was in the office each day I was only given about 1-2hrs worth of work and when I'd ask for further tasks I was told nothing needed to be done, as a result I was very bored. After 3 months I was fired with no explanation, just a call from the job recruitment agency advising they'd heard my last day was in 3 days-they weren't told why and I never did find out the reason. Only reasoning I can think of is a few mistakes made when entering incoming orders into our software, but I was never really given any help to improve this as the lady checking this would just yell at me over email instead of advising what the issue was, how to do it correctly etc-at some points I'd have to fix the same error 3-4 times because she just kept berating me about how it was 'wrong' or yelling about how inexperienced I was to my coworker instead of showing me how to do it correctly.

Pros

Its in a nice building

Cons

Insane lack of communication; left alone after 3 hours on my first day. Did the work they wanted but not fast enough and they had a backup waiting to take my place and were not coy or secretive about that whatsoever. Was told not to bring lunch my first day. So I didn't bring lunch my first day. They did not provide lunch on my first day. I went out and bought food and then came back and worked alone the rest of the day. My trainer had retired years prior from a different company and couldn't understand that a PDF could be opened more than one way. What a relief I did not stick around. Oh yeah and I got very sick when they called to lay me off, but they needed their stuff back. Do you think they sent a courier? Nah. I went in thd next day, still sick, and waited over 10 minutes until hopping the security gate because no one was there AND I WAS SICK. Yeah, shortly after I received my positive COVID results. Welp, that about sums up my short stint at this place. Legal dept was completely chaotic. Also the open floorplan was awful during covid.
