Run, Do Not Walk, In the Opposite Direction

Pros

Downtown location, parking, and the small gym facility in the basement. These are the only positive perks of this company.

Cons

Management at all levels is a joke. Your opinion will not be valued nor appreciated. The mind games are constant and you as an employee are made to feel undervalued, unworthy, and disrespected. I personally lasted with the client I was hired with for a year, and I was considered a veteran at that point as most individuals leave 3-6 months after their hire date. Within a 4 year time frame, there were 3 individuals working in my position before I was hired. Many employees are trying to make connections with outside companies to escape the culture of this company. I made the mistake of accepting the position before reading the reviews listed here and I regret it. I had to leave the abusive, low-pay culture without a job offer because that's how bad working conditions were. Thankfully I had years of work set aside in savings. I feel bad for the younger, new hires that are clueless and think that this is a normal work environment. Do yourself a favor and avoid applying. The benefits are NOT worth it.

This place is a joke.

Pros

Nice location downtown. I can't submit this review until I write a minimum of 20 words, but there are no other pros so I'm just typing words.

Cons

The general vibe at this place is that no one really gives a crap and no one wants to be there. If you want to work somewhere where no one talks to each other and most everyone is in a perpetual bad mood, then this is your place.

Difficult Work Environment

Pros

Company benefits and location. People genuinely like to help one another when asked to do so. Internal work order system is helpful to keep track of projects with web services, creative, and information services departments.

Cons

Unclear expectations and directives from leadership on standard operating procedures (SOP). No written documentation on how to fill out paper work properly which are never remedied until the 11th hour only to then be changed again. Constant feeling of untrustworthiness from leadership from inability to not empower workers to be accountable for work. Micromanagement and extremely high turnover rates. Pungent feeling of frustration in the environment attributing to an unhealthy work atmosphere. Dictatorial approach to the employer and employee relationship. Constant maintaining and protection of the status quo due to fear of fresh ideas.
