Don't stay long - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Mighty Engine

Everyone at Mighty Engine has an interesting personality. The stress involved in a small marketing firm is offset by the joking around and the sense of camaraderie. There was, at least in my web developer position, lots of room for self-management, which was nice. A very flexible company in general, especially with things like doctors' appointments. At Mighty Engine, there seems to be a sort of trial period where management seems scary at first... but after getting to know you, they place a lot of trust in you and listen to your opinions. Employees are valued for their personalities, which shows in moments like birthday lunches. Also, it's a good place to work if you're worried about being too much of a weirdo for an office job :~)

Limited opportunities for technical mentorship — which is just 75% "con" because it just meant I had to learn how to self-educate. Also, design work seemed to be a bit stressful and involves staying late.

Work from home so you at least can suffer in private.

I am sorry that you were once a hopeful, fulfilled soul looking to get into the industry but now sit here empty and beaten. I am sorry that you had to endure the mental abuse the CEO calls a personality instead of being respected for your craft and opinions. I am sorry that your race and culture were diminished and disrespected instead of celebrated. I am sorry that your mental health suffered and spiraled and all you got was an empty promise of change. I am sorry that this company destroyed your spark, destroyed your hope for this industry, and scarred you for future jobs. If you are reading this, former employee, current employee or prospective employee. I am sorry for what you went through, what you are going through and what you may endure.
