Pros

There was LaCroix in the fridge.

Cons

Absolutely the worst bosses I've ever had at Clevver Style & Clevver News. More focused on their own Instagram accounts than making quality work. They will overwork you for not enough pay and even worse benefits. They couldn't care less about the COVID-19 pandemic and how it may affect their employers mental and physical health. They don't respect your time off. I once had a manager call me on Christmas morning to write a script about the movie 'Cats'. Management doesn't know what they're doing, won't take advice from people who do, and won't stick up for their employees when they provide feedback. We were sent incredibly misleading anti-union propaganda for a year. An employee got a concussion at work and wasn't allowed to get medical attention until they finished their assignment. Just overall an awful work environment.
