Scammed out of 400 dollars. No room for growth,

Pros

Great work culture and benefits

Cons

When I resigned from this position, they refused to pay me out on their benefits platform (Nectar) that I had over 400 dollars in. That money is just forfeited and was not notified about this until after they had already deactivated my accounts. Transparency is something that BHR does not do AT ALL. Managers are info of changes the day of and can hardly answer any questions that you have on the matter.
