Pros

Interesting work, health benefits, and co-workers The work can be very interesting but management does not put any thought into properly matching employees to assignments. They just want the work off of their desks and you out of their face. With that said employees have a sense of humor and great attitudes. There are lots of opportunities to try new things.

Cons

Management, salary, work environment, extremely high turnover, and poor work-life balance The managers here are biased, non-communicative, cynical, condescending, and selfish. They offer up talent like human sacrifices with very little benefit to the employee and do not care about retaining skilled workers. You can expect to be overworked and grossly underpaid as the company profits handsomely off of you at over 100% like a bargain basement 6 for $1 deal. If this is your first real job, go for it. Hey it is more than your hourly wage at McDonald's. They will love you because you are desperate with no experience so you will do anything for the company and they will pat you on the head like a good dog and profit! However if you have any kind of real work experience or sense of worth, it will not be worth your time. You will lose confidence and momentum in your field as management plays mind games to justify their shabby treatment and literally throw you a few breadcrumbs as a pigeons reward for good measure to keep you grateful that you have a job and hard at work until they are through using you.

Pros

I met some really good people here and worked with a good team.

Cons

But the top management was not good enough. Did not care about people who worked hard. only favored people who were close to them.
