Pros

Growing company that provides jobs to the community. Some managers try hard to make it a good place for their employees. Average health benifits and 10% discount on Amazon products.

Cons

Company prays on the poor economy to pay low wages and manipulate employees. Hires hunderds to fill dozens of jobs. Does not value employees but treats them as interchangeable parts. No promotion from within. Expects management to work 60 + hours per week.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
