Pros

Coworkers are the absolute best, always feel supported. They acknowledge the issues and don't participate in toxic positivity ignoring things that are CLEARLY not working.

Cons

CEO lines his pockets first, raises cancelled or delayed 6 months. No interest in retaining staff. They would rather constantly train new staff than appreciate the staff they have. Design is not easy and the over all system issues make it difficult to do a good job.
