Pros

Benefits Hours (9-5:30pm) Pay is ok (45k salary) Location (Downtown in the Loop) Company is great but the Chicago office is a bad apple. Hopefully with the new CEO in charge, there will be some changes in management

Cons

Managers have no confidence in themselves. They treat you like children, and you get to play a "game" if the internet is down. They like to hold meetings to hear themselves talk. They demean you in front of your colleagues. Morale in this office is low. It's sad when management stresses you out more than the actual work (which is simple and not very challenging unfortunately). Management is hypocritical and routinely leaves the office to go run personal errands (you know, like shopping cleaning supplies for an hour). I have never had to report a manager to HR before but I did here and was retaliated against. They do not do things the right way here which means using common sense and getting the job done. It's a joke. If you respect yourself and have a heart, work elsewhere.
