Pros

Higher than industry comparable compensation, challenging environment where you will develop problem-solving, management, and leadership skills.

Cons

Be prepared to earn your compensation. When you work, plan on working 12+ hour days. Also be prepared to own your own training -- due to the very fast pace of the business, you need to be ready to seek out help and find a way forward.

Pros

Cross training that helps for faster growth and more experience.

Cons

Sometimes you gotta hurry and find equipment or pit equipment before others snag them and leave you with the “bad” ones. That take forever to get repaired.

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.
