Pros

excellent benefits, great year-end bonuses

Cons

This company does not value people. If you go to work there be prepared to work 24/7. They have no respect for personal time and are lead by members of the good ole boys club. The current management team are all buddies from previous employers and tend to hire one another so they move from company to company as a group. Most of their growth can be attributed to Amazon's huge growth in DC's and there not being enough integrators to do all of Amazon's work. The management team is a bunch of know-it-alls who think they have it all figured out but in reality their growth will not be sustainable once Amazon levels out.
