Pluspunten
I got some good resume-building experience which helped me to find a much better employer.
Minpunten
1. There is no work-life balance. At all. I was often guilted into working 10-hour days and occasional weekends to help the team meet the unrealistic revenue goals set by the company. If those goals weren't met every month, it just meant we had to work even longer days the following month to make up for it. 2. Despite growing the business(es) YoY in the midst of a pandemic, my hard work and long hours were not rewarded during performance reviews. I was told, "Covid year is not the time to look for an increase." 3. The work I had put in behind the scenes was often accredited to my boss. 4. I was looking for advancement (this was made clear during my initial interviews), but was regularly told, "let's see how much you can achieve in the next 6 months, and then we can discuss." The goal posts for "success" were consistently moved every 6 months... 5. I was severely under-compensated for the role(s) I was filling. It always felt like they wanted more and more without ever giving anything back. 6. Most of the people in the Marketing departments are treated as disposable objects, and on more than one occasion I was told that I should be grateful I didn't lose my job when the pandemic hit.
