Thanks for your comments. Yes, micromanagement is an issue especially at times when we're trying hard to hit targets. We're getting better!

Pros

The best things were the happy hours and free trips. Found some good friendships that continued after the job.. Steady income.

Cons

Where to begin with the cons. Have you ever seen the movie "Mean girls," or the 80's movie "Heathers"? These movies are about one small click ruling the entire school and no one is allowed in this click, or accepted if the click doesn't approve. This is exactly what this office is like, except the click isn't your coworkers, they are upper management, or the " leadership team" as they like to call themselves. No one can move up within the office unless you bow down and become their puppet. They pretend to be your friend and give you the sense to trust, until they get all they need from you and hang you out to dry. They give you false hopes of moving up, ask you for advice on projects and insight to take the credit for themselves later. Starting from the area manager to the seniors. They all greet you with fake smiles, and set up agendas to get rid of you. If you want to be part of this office and move up, I have some advice. Join all their soul cycling classes, and sing along to all their songs while at the office, this is the only way they will take you seriously. In the end it doesn't matter what you do, if they don't like you, you are out of there. It doesn't matter how much you have done, it doesn't matter how much you know about the job. They rather hire people from the outside for a position than promote from within, but part of the formula is no outsourcing.. Sounds a bit contradicting if you ask me. but hey, what do I know, I'm just a person who proved their worth for years and continuously was told No, only because I chose not to have stool breath from kissing theirs.

Pros

It`s a great company for meeting people and making friends. They throw great parties and they treat you well Will definitely assist in developing your communication skills

Cons

Management is poor It`s extremely difficult to get promoted unless you are friends with somebody from the upper management The job is very repetitive They promise a lot but hardly ever fulfil any of it
