    Huge staff turnover. Glad to be gone.
    The good thingsWalking out of there permanently. Scenic environment, can take a nice walk if you get a break.
    The challengesManagement is the worst I've ever seen. You have to rely on yourself entirely, no support from above... it's an illusion. Very toxic environment. Huge staff turnover.

    Terrible experience, ego fuelled workplace with a bad vibe.
