Pros

excellent $$$$, usually some free software. you get to wear your own clothes (except for the t-shirt and lanyard they make you wear.)

Cons

The place went from being a very lax work environment that cared about it's employees to a very much numbers and sales oriented operation that made employees cut-throat against one another. got rid of bonuses, and barely gave any free iPods or iphone away. I remember the days of bonuses, lots of free iPods, and even a free iPhone.

It's sad when it's employees can't even afford to own the products their selling.

Also, ? used to have a more rigid hiring process, now they'll pretty much take you off the street even if you don't know what a computer is.

Kind of a sexist, homophobic, racist environment to work in at times.

Advice to Senior Management

Get a clue, and please stop pitting employees against each other; also while you're at it stop your unfair practices of how you determine who gets promoted.
