Pros

good people to work with clean work environmet only 40 hours a week and a few meetings a month good products good prices nice customers

Cons

weird half pay for overtime is that legal? no room for advancement or to learn other things no praise just a lot of talk about what you need to do better say no layoffs but a lot of people have disappeared did they all REALLY quit during a depression? unrealistic expectations managers spend all their time in the back room want us to read stuff and watch stuff without pay cant get all the communication because it costs money to listen to

Pros

Decent pay for the most part

Cons

No raises, no bonuses, as an IC doing every other department is more important. Lots of forced overtime at the last minute.
