Pros
I guess I made some friends
Cons
The most toxic workplace i have ever had the displeasure of working. Almost all employees, other than those in management, saw their mental health deteriorate during their time at mountjoy. There was always at least one person signed off and a few of them were hospitalised due to stress. Regardless of what position you hold, you are pressured to step up and work across departments but then you are moaned at if you do not perform at a perfect standard despite lack of training. The management team is filled with bullies who use personal problems against you, and will use mental health as a way to avoid confrontation about concerns. You are made to feel guilty for taking any time off, despite no sick pay being offered. Conversations are incredibly inappropriate, and political discussions are constant and often offensive. Its very clear the majority of the employees are transphobic, homophobic, sexist and racist. Misogyny is at an all time high and management will often have disgusting and inappropriate conversations about female employees. God forbid you make a mistake because it will be blown completely out of proportion even if you are under pressure to over-perform or as they say "go above and beyond" There is no reward. No satisfaction and absolutely no positive re-inforcement.
