Pros

Very laid back environment due to the high level of nepotism and people not actually qualified for the roles they are in.

Cons

Due to the high rate of under qualified employees, for those actually having a real skillset/ qualifications, they will be slammed with work to make up for the majority that work there as a result of living on the same street, brother, sister, daughter, etc. Highest nepotism and foreign colleagues from India out of 5 former employers ever seen. The Indians are definitely taking over, in droves. A few are in CTO and comparable roles, allowing them to open the door to bring in swarms of their people. They are paid more than American citizens, for a fact, due to law requiring the position and salary be posted when extended to a non-US citizen.

Pros

The pros are the benefits, the pay could be higher for all that you learn and have to go through for ten weeks. They offer tuition assistance and opportunity for upskilling and advancing in such little time and the remote flexibility is great too

Cons

Management sucks and of course they have their favorites and then they have the people they target like myself. They micromanage bad and are quick to give you an occurrence for nothing. Their systems are so slow and then they blame you for being five ten minutes late logging in. They want you to tell them when you get up to breathe, go to the bathroom and they push for you to take calls and know boatloads of info after on 3 weeks of training. What they don’t know is that I will sue for any wrong doings or discrimination and I keep records of everything
