Pros

The reason why I didn't give this a full blown 1 star rating was because some of the people I met working at Scoot. Scoot definitely had a fun energy and drew great people in because of its culture. Meetings were fun and outside work activities were encouraged by management. In some ways it felt like a family. which probably made me trust Scoot more than I should've.

Cons

I want to be as direct as possible here, because they make you write a positive review once you get in there, when you're happiest at Scoot. Management focused on growth in other territories rather than their existing employees. Low salaries, made it impossible to get a raise. Very numbers and bottom line driven, not based off of work ethic/output. Favoritism. You could clearly see who management liked and they would get promoted faster than others, as well as were treated better. Political. Made it seem they were a startup with fresh values, but secretly functions like a corporation. Nice to your face, but gives you no chance once they made up their mind about you. You're ousted before you're aware. Sexist/colorist management. In my time there I saw more white men become part of the management team, and despite there being more women around, most of them were white, or white-passing. It was frustrating because management claimed they were doing the most to have D&I teachers, which was true, but it did not reflect on the team. I saw the feedback given to women had different tones and feedback, at least from my 1 on 1 conversations with them. Constant uphill battle. Constantly felt I had to prove myself, even if I had no control over the outcome. It was embarrassing after a while. I felt I had to prove my value and positive feedback was rarely given, if ever. Shady. People would mysteriously quit without any inkling of a reason why, but after talking to them after the fact, they were bullied into quitting. Elitist. I'll stop there.

Pros

Flexible! Paid weekly. Pay can be better than other flexible work. They work with an app that keeps things organized.

Cons

Not knowing if you're going to work that day. If you're not an early morning person, like me, it's difficult to be ready to work when you don't know if you'll work and they you're not ready when they need someone...to be fair that is the point of the position, so not necessarily the companies fault but the communication can be better with planning.
