there truly is no such thing as a free lunch. - werkgeversreview Marketing Director bij Fandango

you will pay for the free lunch/snacks/coffee/movies, with your mind/body/soul. this is by far the most sexist environment in which i've ever worked. women in executive roles were laid off and replaced by men. women in executive roles were promoted in title, but demoted in terms of hierarchy and reporting structure. women in middle management were excluded from consideration for newly created executive roles that were ultimately filled by men. and when i say men, i mean white men. most of the company's diversity was at the manager level or below. and speaking of the junior staff...there were people there with college degrees working their butts off for a paltry $15-$17/hour. and when it came time for merit increases, most people were told there was no budget for raises, but that they'd see anywhere from 0-2% increase for cost of living considerations. this happened at the same time that many senior execs were getting massive promotions...so i guess it's no wonder there was no budget left for the folks who actually needed the money. the strategy...or strategies, rather...is all over the map. is fandango a ticket retailer? a content company? a review site? an on-demand platform? all of the above? from a KPI standpoint, that's like telling every person to bite the hand that feeds them. who can succeed, let alone thrive, in such a conflicted environment? the aforementioned white men who don't seem to care that there are very real tactical issues with trying to execute their very flawed and short-sighted visions. but no one else. every one else is drowning in a sea of too much work, confusion, and crushed morale with absolutely no compensation, compliments, or even high fives.
