Pros

Barely any, maybe PTO policy if I have to write one

Cons

Too many to list. The most toxic work culture I've ever experienced. Upper management does not care at all about their employees. I can't advise people more to never accept a job here.

Pros

Lifelong friendships made through the struggle this company puts you through

Cons

Impossible goals to reach Being called out if you hadn't reached your goals even though you're not taking lunch breaks and staying late at work. Impossible goals are impossible Your employees are crying in the stairwell or in bathrooms from the pressure. The situation is the same as precovid, the stress is too much In 2021 virtually everyone got a demotion, all Senior PMs demoted to PMs whilst the business was shouting how they're acquiring new business in dubai, etc, and how they've hit the first billion. The business doesn't care about employees, they only care about working you to the bone If you want to get a raise you'll be laughed in your face. Quarterly bonuses "should" make up for the lack of actual money you get. Don't worry, they'll put the pin in your bonus or your raise if you ever get promoted as soon as they think they need some extra reserves. Incompetent people everywhere, anyone can be a manager as long as they say they want to be, so incompetent people with zero peoples skills start managing teams, making everyone hate their work life Overall, working here is a joke. Beware, they're on the hunt for fresh graduates that are to naive and gullable to say no because they will abuse you. It's just the culture.

Pros

I had a Smart & Supportive Manager

Cons

Why shouldn't you join this company? the benefits, compensation and salary are subprime value. If you want to live like a beggar it might be for you then? the sales strategy is non-existent, and training is the most generic D - rated I've seen. You might as well get trained at Walmart Production is exploited, undervalued and mistreated. - I'm pretty sure this would be illegal under the Modern Slavery Act? No point in being promoted as you still have a subprime salary with double the responsibility and accounts to handle (Did I mention your commission gets cut in half if the client doesn't pay on time?) (This happens weekly) They won't even give you a phone/software to make national/international calls...(that's on you to pay using your beggar salary ;) Micromanagement - highest I've seen
