Pros
Liked the workplace set up, free parking on site, great location.
Cons
Was laid off 7 days after newest CEO started. 65 of us were walked out including an RN with a masters degree just before me. I had moved to another department about a year before the layoff. In my old department, there were still temp employees that I had helped hire, still working there!!! Why wasn't I given an option with my prior experience and knoweledge of being there NINE years, to go back to my old area??
Advice to Management
Watch your management style; TONS of employees being laid off with YEARS of experience going out the door. ALL of that history is essentially lost and this can be important information. Very sour environment from what I hear now.

Pros
Good people to work with. Flexible schedule, Great CIP program, generous PTO.
Cons
- Horrible management
- Constant re-organizations
- Constant threat of layoffs
- Overworking loyal employees.
- Backstabbing office culture
- Toxic EnvironmentAdvice to Management
Put your employees first. Get some people in there that actually know how to manage people and quit worrying about whether or not someone has the proper degree. Most of your IT management knows nothing about the technology and even less about how to deal with employees, especially those who have been worked to the breaking point. I've seen too many people break in that place. Leaving there was the best thing I could have done for my health.

Pros
People are awesome, facility is awesome, giving back to the community is awesome.
Cons
Hours suck, rotating scheduled every week, hard to balance life and work , pay is good but you couldn't pay enough with how stressful it's to do 110 percent all the time , don't do it and your stuck. Never forget anything ever always. Unrealistic goals. You can go where ever you want as long as you are perfect.
Advice to Management
Lighten up and realize we are human beings and either monitor more calls so your stats don't drop so drastically with a single mistake. Give you a better percentage of persons actual value and assign addtl points for customer appreciation call backs. Not a plastic trophy.
