Minpunten
Unequal pay, terrible benefits, no work-life balance. This company will give you more and more jobs/responsibilities but never change your title or pay. There is a lot of micromanaging and expectations of working a ridiculous amount of overtime. If you are salary, you are still treated as an hourly employee, and your every move is checked. While you do not clock in, you still "clock in". If you are a woman, DO NOT have a baby here. The only "benefits" offered is short-term disability, if you sign up for it. If you don't and try to sign up later, be aware pregnancy is a preexisting condition and you will not qualify. If you do have short-term, you will get 3/4 of your pay and get 4 weeks off for a regular birth and 6 for c-section. BUT you need to pay for your first week with all the PTO and sick time you have. If you don't have Short Term disability, as long as you have been there for a year, you get FMLA. This meansnyou can be out for up to 12 weeks without being fired. I had to save all my sick time and vacation time and never take a day off, just to make sure I had time off when my surprise baby came. Don't worry, you can borrow time off. Up to 40 hours. Oh, wait, if you leave before that is made up it will be taken off your paycheck and you will not be allowed to ever call out or have a day off after leave. Negative leave means no days off. No matter what the reason is. If you do take a day off for a surprise move when your landlord decides to sell their house, you will be making up that time at night and over the weekend. My baby was 5 months old when I left CG, and I still had 8 hours of negative PTO. I asked HR if they would be willing to waive it since I work so many hours of OT and have put so much into the company. NOPE. Just got my last paycheck and they took out those hours. I am leaving this company being paid 10k less than my co-managers who were in the same role, with Negative time off for having a baby and feeling as unimportant as a tissue that's been used on both sides. I may have learned some skills working for this company, but I'm not sure if it was worth the absolute soul-crushing experience.
