Pros

Extravagant holiday parties, decent work/life balance.

Cons

Employees who contribute to the success and profitability of the company may be rewarded with surprise layoffs. Work is tedious; politics, confusion, and weak middle management are rampant; communication is poor; location in the middle of nowhere, no 401(k) match.

Pros

This role is flexible time wise. It provides a lot of down time within one shift. The supervisors were understanding about errors, and supportive when training. Very small amount of training required.

Cons

Have to be able to watch and listen two two television shows simultaneously.

Pros

The office building was nice and there are some great people that worked there.

Cons

The leadership was a bunch of men just trying to protect their own egos and line their own pockets. I never worked anywhere that felt as dismissive of women as TiVo.
