Pros

None at all. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Cons

Everything about the place. To start they claim to care about the employees but they absolutely do not. I’m forced to resign due to poor working conditions after being on leave for 14-weeks and no real resolution. Forced labor, sometimes 15+ hr days without a break, mandatory overtime, lack of communication, lies, and coercion, grossly understaffed and underpaid. This is just a couple examples. If want to be treated like crap, used and abused then it’s for you. Otherwise, I’d look anywhere else. If you are a hard worker you will be rewarded with more work, no additional pay or help while others in the branch don’t do a thing and get paid for nothing. Management loves their dei hires, not treated with any respect at all! Best thing I ever did was submit my resignation. Gonna go back to school and change career paths after this experience. I’ll never return to an office job again!

Pros

None, I would say remote work but it’s very toxic.

Cons

Poor leadership (manager and director), poor communication, poor training, unrealistic m expectations, micromanagement, no SOPs, lack of structure, FLSA violations, no upfront disclosure of what role is, stingy management. People outside of HR are great. In HR? They’re happy to lay people off and talk about it so casually during meetings. Think “it’s our yearly layoffs” and joking about catching people “slipping”. No opportunities for growth despite saying there was during interviews. Interview and reality are worlds apart. No diversity. Severe control issues. No new people have been hired in over 3 years yet multiple people have left so people are burnout. One person handles all of one process alone and management thinks that’s ok. For reference the same process takes 10-11 associates in the same sized org. I can go on. Stay away!!!
