The work atmosphere is good, and colleagues get along well.
Want to leave work at five... Wake up! That’s only possible for department managers or certain brand account teams.
Anyway, the department manager isn’t the one doing the projects. Their job is just to keep clicking Send/Receive in Outlook every day,
then send emails going back and forth with “Dear” or “Hi,” and all they know how to do is highlight the vendor, without offering any constructive opinions.
When you’re assigned a high-end model, being able to leave at 10 p.m. already feels like a blessing from a previous life. By then, the manager has long since gone home to get ready for bed! As soon as you arrive at work the next day, they chase you for progress again—who cares what time you worked until the night before, or how hard you worked? You can work yourself to death, but someone else still gets the A+ roast chicken!
Bonuses and profit sharing are about the same as for people with normal working hours, and your raise might even be smaller than theirs, because you’re not one of the favorites.
