Pros

Very ethical in terms of how they treat benefits and work life balance (usually). The product is decently made at a pretty good price. Many of the people are really ok sorts.

Cons

They were unwilling to make the leap that IT projects do not do well when the main mode of work is "jump in, fix it, and be a hero", vs "put some thought in to get it right the first time"

Pros

Great work environment Pay is great for retail Job keeps you busy

Cons

Lack of communication with leadership and coworkers. Leadership seems to have favorites Schedule but know it's a pain Seems that there's people who would like the be full time or part time that are temporary right now aren't getting the positions Feels like nepotism but maybe I'm wrong. Finding out that there's family relations just seems off putting to others. Getting responses like you didn't get the job because you didn't answer your interview questions right just seems like a cop out The amount of drama happening is getting out of hand. Leadership doesn't seem to care about it.
