Pros

The training process was good. They made sure you had knowledge before sending you off to do things independently.

Cons

The expectations of a manager there are unrealistic. Nothing was ever good enough. In order to advance you had to fit in with their company culture. I am a positive person who loves to see the best in others and the world. I was told because I laugh a lot they could not take me seriously and it would prevent me from growing in the company. It absolutely destroyed my mental health. I’ve never been at a job less than two years before. I left after four months because my mental health could not take it.
