          Business Outlook

          Pros

          - Can reach out to just about anyone (even people on other teams) and get a timely response - Work culture is very enjoyable and engaging for both remote and in-person interns - The company provides you with resources to learn (such as Pluralsite) for free - Very flexible work hours (so long as you can make the daily team meetings) - The main drive behind this internship is the developer themself rather than the company. As an intern you can swap projects with minimal reasoning (can be anything from internal conflict to just wanting to work on a 'fresh' project)

          Cons

          - Daily team meetings can be unnecessary - Summer sprints are every week rather than every two weeks - On-boarding process is fickle and, if you're not careful, can swallow up most of your time at work

                Pros

                Pay is good on Macy's account. No experience CDL drivers start at 0.63 CPM with a semi local account. Most weeks are 1 night out with occasional 2 nights out on the read. Management takes care of you and your needs. Servant leadership at it's finest.

                Cons

                Long hours and miles when starting out as a brand new trucker. However this will be almost anywhere because being a truck driver generally has a break in period when you're driving 2500 miles + a week.

                  I liked the management, very helpful and understanding. Great work environment with great people.

                  Cons

                  The hours can be long and the pay can be somewhat low but that's the transportation business.

                    Pros

                    Managers are very welcoming and easy to talk to. VP-level and above managers are very accessible as well.

                    Cons

                    The wages are not competitive. The company is struggling to retain top talent because people continue to leave for higher paying positions. Turnover is a problem and affects the moral of the entire company. The hours are long and you get the feeling you are looked down upon for taking your full lunch hour.

                      Pros

                      They pay their employees on time.

                      Cons

                      No vacation for the first year of employment. Employees are overworked at a minimum of 10 to 13 hours per day (sometimes longer). Low pay, expensive benefits, and there is no change with their archaic way of doing business. All management is overworked and there is no sign of employing more staff to help with the work load. We have asked time and time again and no change to the number of employees to help assist with the work load. There is also no separation of work/home life. Supervisors are constantly bothered at nights, early mornings, and on the weekends.

                        Long work hours and low management help Hard to take off Lack of visibility between warehouse and transportation

                      I have an interview on monday as a product specialist- medical capability report. Any tips about how to answer if they ask about skills needed for the job? I have not had an interview in a year so any advice would help.

                      Case Manager

                      I applied to 4 jobs last week. Two companies replied that thy are reviewing my application and I have an interview tomorrow with a third. The company I'm interviewing with is the one I'm least interested in of the four, though it is better than my current job. What is the etiquette if I'm offered a job with this company but I want to wait and see what response I get from the other 3? Should I tell the company I need a couple weeks to decide, or be up front that I'm waiting for other offers? Or?
