Awful lack of controls

Pros

The pay and PTO was good

Cons

Management was awful. They gave ridiculous deadlines and didn’t care about the stress that it took on employees. Most management worked crazy hours and basically demanded that of their employees. Another big thing that I noticed is that hourly employees lied on their timesheets by working more than the 8 hours allowed and only putting 8 just to meet ridiculous deadlines for management.
