Do not work here! Can’t give zero stars but would if it were possible!

Business Outlook

Pros

My manager was truly a great person but knew that there were no real growth opportunities.

Cons

Too many to say: Toxic culture, teams literally not doing their jobs, a complete lack of leadership and the ceo is a horrible person. The sales people are legitimately some of the dumbest people I’ve met throughout my career. They don’t have an understanding of the products at all and then get angry when you try to simply explain what the actual products are and how they function.

Vacuous people, bully culture

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent pay, lively office culture

Cons

Most people I encountered were vacuous, spotlight hungry but lacked any real substance and intelligence beyond holding down a job. Culture of bullying and playing the blame game.

Freedom to work entirely remotely. Easy monthly targets. Some incredibly great colleagues.

Zero editorial consistency. Blame/deflection culture. Low salary; incremental increases out of step with real world expenses.
