Pros

Lots of hard working and knowledgeable people you can learn from, however the management doesn't seem to. Can abuse sick policy without any ramifications. Constant turnover, so you meet a lot of people. I think the pay is fair, I make the average in the area for my job, some of my friends make more and have more vacation.

Cons

Very disorganized. Executives sit in meeting and design the products, instead of listening and trusting the people that work under them. Project scopes are constantly changing, and creating more work, or projects are so rushed mistakes happen and it creates more work for everyone. Either way more work and long hours. Lots of animosity between groups, they are always ready to throw you under the bus. PROCESSES or lack there of. No one follows the ones that are in place, processes are not approved by the teams that must use them day to day.

Pros

No background checks. Good for people needing a job quickly.

Cons

Where to start? Poor leadership on all levels. A bunch of talk about quality and the customer but are happy pushing out inferior product and dealing with it later, but then blame all the workers (via no quarterly bonus due to impossible metrics they have little/ no control over) instead of correcting the workers responsible. They are SO CHEAP. Cheap in pay, cheap in providing what employees need in a timely manner or if ever, cheap in benefits, cheap all the way around. They want drones, not humans. Very high turnover rate. A lot of promises and little follow up. If you sign up for the annual company picnic and cant make it, they take money directly out of your check for each person signed up to go. Poor training. Reactive, not proactive.
