Devalued - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Writer's Relief

I've been working for Writer's for over 2 years, full time, and I'm very happy with this job. They just increased paid time off to 16 days- which is great - plus I can telecommute and that is a great perk- saves me travel time & money on gas and wear and tear on my car. I've worked several jobs in many different situations- and this is one of my favorite. I love helping clients- and they are very appreciative. Way better than working retail, and having to work nights & weekends, and not use my degree in English! Also, staff ideas and suggestions are often put into place.

I wish pay was a bit higher, but it really is a great place to work.

They were flexible with my ever-changing life schedule. Great co-workers--funny, compassionate, and friendly. The work itself was sometimes interesting. Ability to work remotely.

Most everything has been stated in other reviews--micromanaging boss, unreasonable workload, crazy time expectations, paltry pay--but I think my biggest qualm with this company was the constantly shifting priorities towards tasks that have no bearing or, dare I say, a point. Once, we were all tasked with rewriting work manuals for no discernible reason, and had to drop all the other balls we were juggling to do this. This was done with no planning, forethought, or consideration of other people's time and projects, and ultimately led nowhere. Tasks are assigned without taking into account how much time may be left in the day. Major decisions are made without warning, creating an anxiety-inducing environment.
