What don't you like about working at Coastal Environments?
"The work is completely uncreative; the writing style is drier than a doornail. Creativity is actively discouraged. The boss is a bit of a tyrant. The goals of the company and my own personal goals are completely unrelated. To make matters worse, I don't earn enough money to get by nor do I have health insurance paid for by the company."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Hold staff meetings at least once a month and show employees that their input is valuable, perhaps giving bonuses when the firm gets a new contract"

What do you like about working at Innovatia?
"I loved the work. The people were fantastic. When I wanted to move up to Editor, my team lead was more than happy to help me out and in no time I was an Editor. I gained a lot of great experience and made some life long friendships."
What don't you like about working at Innovatia?
"When I left it was because of the way I was treated towards the end. For the last 4 months I was there, I felt like I was being disrespected. I was not given straight answers to very simple questions. I felt like I was being given the runaround. People were becoming permanent while I was still a contractor, but I had much more experience and was with the company longer than some of the people who became permanent. When I asked for an explanation, I was not given one. Just told that it was a numbers issue. I got the same response when I did not get one of the Information Architect positions. Instead of explaning what I still needed for the position, I was told that it was a numbers issue and that they took 3 instead of 4. They did not help me by explaining what I could work on for next time. I was treated unfairly towards the end and that is why I left."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"I gave my suggestions when I left the company."
