Dont want u there for more than 5 years, have an exit plan.

Have one way of doing things and other employers wont want you if you have been there too long

Bad name with other employers, employees often burnt out and exploited, become damaged goods.  Have an exit plan!!

Terrible culture of working 50 hr weeks, dont believe for 1 sec you will work 37.5hrs!!  I workwd 16 hour days m-f for 6 months once.

No bonus, no rewards, nonpayrises.  I was a hr mgr, dont believe the 12% bonus crap, no mgr was allowed to give more than 5% EVER!  And most were 1-3% and thats when people were killing themselves for the glorious company.  

This is a bad place to work, but it will make you stronger.  Have a 2 year plan, wxit by 3 - its what they want anyway!!
