Pros
You can be high as a kite all day and no one will care
Cons
Working at Hemper.com was, to put it mildly, a pretty rough ride. First off, forget about PTO – it’s just not a thing there, which feels a bit out of step with, well, basic human needs. Then there's the vibe from management – not great. Instead of support and guidance, think more along the lines of verbal lashings. It's one thing to be driven; it's another to feel overworked, underappreciated, and underpaid. And don't get me started on communication. Despite no cell phone allowances, management still slid into my texts expecting replies when they couldn't be bothered to use the official channels. Speaking of management, they've got this coming and going freedom that's the complete opposite of how they micromanage the rest of us. Oh, and the cherry on top? Dishonesty. I've seen managers straight-up lie and throw people under the bus to save their own skin. All in all, my time at Hemper.com was far from stellar. It's a mix of missed opportunities for a positive work environment and a management style that could really use a complete overhaul.
