Pros

Financial strength of the company. Salary is good and benefits are unbelievable

Cons

The weekly hours worked is incredible for all levels of management. If you are not a pathways manager be prepared to be treated like a second class citizen. Almost no minorities of color in senior roles at the distribution centers. very dissappointing.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
