Vantaggi
One highlight was the opportunity to freely curate genuine ideas for social media content. Being able to collaborate with local Seattle-based communities.
Svantaggi
- Lack of leadership responsibilities, organizational skills, and daily commitments - Directionless marketing strategy; there was no clear route for a company that has been around for over 70 years - Lack of recognition and empathy, regardless of the effort exerted - Frustrations due to the business's failure to establish standards of quality work versus performance - High-stress levels, work overload, and a lack of guidance and implementation for success - Limited ability to collaborate freely among different departments within a "family-owned and operated" business - Rumors among colleagues spread rapidly, creating a toxic environment for those not exceeding expectations - No direct HR contact (besides payroll or benefits) - Promised 90-day review was never prioritized nor given, therefore performance was never assessed - Team communications are solely conducted via text, making it challenging to separate work from personal life
