Horrible leadership from team lead level to supervisor to manager to CEO, nepotism, violation of workers rights, violation of rights of disabled people's, micromanaging, encouraged to not take breaks or lunches, doesn't care about their customers, ridiculously underpaid with KPI's that are raised mid-year and consistently unachievable, bullying from employees to leadership to security to maintenance

Pros

The flexibility of when we show up is fantastic. You can arrive at any time you want, as long as it’s the exact time management had in mind but didn’t bother to communicate.

Cons

Management and supervision at this company are profoundly incompetent. The people in charge lack even a basic understanding of the work they are supposedly overseeing, which leads them to invent arbitrary, inconsistent rules that actively obstruct productivity rather than support it. There is no meaningful mentorship, no strategic direction, and no investment in employee development. Career growth is effectively nonexistent; staying here means stagnation. If you’re looking to learn, advance, or be led by people who actually understand the job, this is not the place.
