Pros
The only pro I could think of is the schedule.
Cons
Too many. Starting with HR biggest suck up ever with Steven (the owner). No respect for your workers. You cant even go to the restroom in peace without thinking of how it'll affect your evaluation.

Thank you for your honest feedback about your experience. Your candid observation is vital to our improvement. Respect is a fundamental pillar of our culture, so hearing that you did not feel respected at work is deeply concerning. Additionally, our culture is one of communication and collaboration. We strongly encourage our employees to play an active role within the company by sharing their suggestions for how we can improve - in all areas. We are sorry your time with Guardian was disappointing and wish you the best of luck in all of your future endeavors.
The pay and benefits are good. Location is in the city of Chicago which is rare.
Cons
Terrible culture, built on fear. Micromanagement at its finest. Ownership is involved in far too many of the details and decision making is stagnated waiting on the owner to make a decision. Employees are not empowered to make decisions. Completely resistant to change or new ideas.
