Pros

Flexible PTO: One of the few positives about working at FCCU is the flexibility regarding paid time off. Employees are generally allowed to take time off as needed, which is a significant benefit for maintaining work-life balance. Entry-Level Opportunities: The pay is very low for most positions under management, which means hiring qualifications are often entry-level. This can be a good opportunity for recent graduates or those looking to gain experience in a corporate environment.

Cons

Pretend to Seek Input: Management often pretends to ask for employee feedback and input, but in reality, they are not genuinely interested in what we have to say. Meetings are held under the guise of collaboration, but our suggestions are frequently ignored. It feels like a waste of time to voice concerns when nothing changes. Micromanagement: The managers tend to micromanage every aspect of our work. Instead of empowering employees to take ownership of their tasks, they constantly hover and interfere, which stifles creativity and innovation. It's demoralizing to feel like you can’t make any decisions on your own. Unrealistic Expectations: The workload is excessive, with unrealistic deadlines that often lead to burnout. Management seems to be unaware of how much work is actually involved in our projects. When we raise concerns about the workload, we are met with indifference and told to "just get it done."

Pros

No degree/education required to move up. No hard work required to move up. It is not a what you know but who you know environment. It is easy to get hired but hard to get fired, if you know what I mean.

Cons

Working hard and hardly working are defined the same

Pros

People are great Previously allowed for growth and valued loyalty Best for young talent

Cons

Firing tenured employees Lack of strategy and how to meet goals when employees are doing multiple people’s jobs Overworking is the expectation (never truly get a 40 hour week) Favoritism is the only job security here
