Stressful and miserable place to work
Pros
-Very demanding so learnt a lot -Started off my career with a low benchmark for what a full-time job is like and gave me low expectations from a company. Henceforth this has made me really appreciate what working in a nice company is like and has made me more tolerant of negative aspects because this one was so brutal.
Cons
-Long and unappreciated working hours. Rarely thanked for your work and looked down on if you left within contractual working hours. -Had a 1:1 performance review with my manager twice during the year I was there and both were largely critical and negative experiences. -Everyone felt on edge and under extreme pressure all the time. -Horrible, negative, toxic atmosphere. -The team I was in was understaffed so about 6 of us had to do work for about twenty especially as people kept leaving. -Constantly undermined by manager and honestly called stupid -Incredibly low wages despite the arduous work put in which is demonstrative of how ungrateful and unappreciated we were. -Poor opportunities for career progression and the salary bonuses offered were pathetic. -No focused training provided on the job. You had to learn as you went and were treated like an idiot if you made mistakes/asked too many questions.
