Vantaggi
For the most part the people that you work with (non management) are amazing! It can be a bit of a laid back atmosphere, which is both a good thing and can be a bad thing, and they do throw some great parties. They, also, do a company match for the HSA and pay the majority of the health insurance premiums, which is nice.
Svantaggi
The favoritism was the biggest problem. If you became personal friends with management in some way, you were in and could do no wrong, no matter how bad you were at your job. However, if someone that was a favorite or a member of management didn’t like you personally, you could be let go very quickly, even if you were great at your job. They also would continue to add more and more responsibilities onto workers that were outside of their job scope while never paying any addition money or moving them into an open position that covered those additional responsibilities. It also didn’t appear that they liked employees who had any kind of ambition to move up with in the company, again unless you were one of the favorites. Pay was on the low side and they were ok with simply being a starter job for most people. They would rather have high turnover than pay good workers what they deserved. The insurance wasn’t that great; you have to fork out about $3000 before it would cover anything.
