Pros

Casual work environment is probably the only positive of this job. I dislike almost everything about the position and cannot wait to leave.

Cons

Where to start... Incompetent and unfriendly coworkers, unwillingness to take responsibility and ownership, lack of teamwork, poor communication to name a few. There is high turnover, vacation days are quickly blacked out and must be reserved well in advance, expectations are unclear, poor organization. Upper management is rarely in the office, especially Alter, and when he is he's working on his blog.

Pros

Good pay, decent benefits, unlimited time off.

Cons

From the start, it was uncomfortably obvious that at least half of the people in marketing had problems with one another. You could actively feel the tension in every interaction: during video calls, in email threads, even in Slack chats, etc. At first, I blamed structural issues. The various marketing teams were set up in a confusing way, and it wasn’t clear who owned what or who made final decisions. So I understood why everyone felt like their toes were being stepped on. However, I really think it goes beyond that. There’s a fundamental lack of respect, and it’s led to an extremely negative and passive aggressive environment. The pay is slightly above market value, which is what led me to accept the job in the first place (despite one of my pre-employment interviews with the team being so tense and uncomfortable that the hiring manager actually had to apologize). However, I really wish I had trusted my gut. My experience at SurePayroll was by far my least favorite of my entire career.
