Pros

My supervisor was understanding and flexible. Pay is decent, but sounds like that may not be the case soon (details below).

Cons

My company was acquired by ION a couple of years ago, and every day has gotten worse and worse since. Imagine the reverse of the Wizard of Oz, where a vibrant and diverse company with a great culture suddenly turns to a black and grey, lifeless world. Upper management cannot communicate to save their lives, and when they do communicate, they use corporate buzzwords that don't mean anything. Nothing but empty promises. Getting an email on a Saturday morning telling all employees they had to return to the office 5 days a week "for a more collaborative culture" (that collaborative culture is really just a silent and half-empty office with people who avoid talking to new people at all costs) starting in a week. The CEO so obviously could not care less about any of his employees; all he cares about is money, money, money. His son also berates other employees over email about how stupid they and their ideas are, creating a volatile environment where everyone walks on egg shells constantly. Not to mention higher-ups readjusting commission because "people were making too much". Constant changes to processes and technology and pulling the rug out from under teams by stopping and starting campaigns with no explanation. I would warn people not to work here, but this company doesn't really hire, they acquire. So most people are working here not on their own volition, which makes sense because I would hope no one would voluntarily apply to work here.

Pros

Sounds like a good job/company in theory

Cons

oh my god. I just saw that they posted positions for the leadership development program again and needed to let you all know not to waste your time by even applying. Last year after many interviews and a superday with a case study i received a verbal offer for the leaderhship development program. I was very excited and planned on accepting it. However, at the time i had no idea how inept this company was and the lack of Hr they have. I reached out multiple times after they had asked me for my address to send the physical offer letter to to ask when it was coming. They just kept coming up with reasons as to why it was getting pushed back. About 4 months after i recieved the verbal offer i got basically a short and automated email saying that they were no longer offering me a position. I have seen many reviews on here that this same thing happened to many other people. I think they may have canceled the program?? I cant believe they are trying to hire people for it again this year.

Pros

i have none for the company

Cons

This company is extremely unprofessional in not only their hiring process but their correspondence. Shortly after the Superday for their LDP, I received a verbal offer stating that a formal offer is coming in the next few days and is just awaiting HR approval. Weeks pass & I reach out, only to be told that they are still waiting on approval. Then a month and a half with no contact & being completely ghosted by all contacts within the organization. I then receive an email 2 months after the initial offer saying they can no longer offer me full time employment. Horrible management and set up. Extremely embarrassing for the company.
