Vantaggi
Honestly, there weren’t many pros…
I did enjoy the all hands meeting, employee appreciation days and bought lunches/treats.
However, the bad very much outweighs these perks. For starters, there is very poor communication. I would have to follow up on questions for weeks on end before anyone would ever acknowledge it or attempt to answer it. Slack messages would go unanswered or ignored the majority of the time. There is also a lack of responsibility within management and production employees. No one seems to want to take or acknowledge any type of responsibility within their role. Also seems there is no sense of direction of newly hired employees. Before someone is hired, there should already be a list of job duties and what is expected of that employee, but there is not for some roles. Figure it out as you go type scenario and fend for yourself.
Unfortunately, no one seemed to be very happy. Not very many friendly conversations were being had or any sense of team work.
I have also personally witnessed unexcused behavior from HR. Bad mouthing employees. Complaining when an employee comes to her office with a concern or issue. One of the worst workplace behaviors I’ve seen from her was scream yelling in her office (door closed) but so loud that everyone in the front of the office heard her and then proceeded to storm out of her office, slam the door, and speed out of the parking lot.
Svantaggi
Lack of communication
Very unorganized
Lack of responsibility and leadership
Pay is less than great with an even worse PTO structure.
