Great company to work for

None I don’t have cons

If you’re a salaried (not hourly) employee and NOT on the marketing team you’re probably fine. WORST place to work overall. Get ready to be overworked.

The marketing team had a highly cliquish culture that created an uncomfortable and exclusionary environment. Gossip about other employees was common and often took place openly in meetings or within earshot of team members. Conversations frequently shifted toward coworkers’ personal lives and social media activity, which made the workplace feel unprofessional. A larger issue was the lack of communication and alignment across leadership and project management. Expectations around deliverables often shifted, and there was frequent confusion around what the director actually wanted. Because team members appeared hesitant to ask clarifying questions or challenge unclear direction, much of the pressure fell on individual contributors to figure out priorities and execution on their own. Hourly employees were given heavy workloads with high expectations but limited clarity on priorities. When deliverables became misaligned due to communication gaps, the resulting pressure often rolled downhill to those executing the work. The combination of clique dynamics, unclear leadership direction, and excessive workload created a high-stress environment that led to burnout.
