Pros

Most people are nice and the environment is not as stressful, free fruit, bicycles available for breaks, parties throughout the year, everyone being paid on holidays even contractors (this no longer applies but it was nice while it lasted).

Cons

Lack of communication including upper management and contractors, issues with documents being poorly written, no room for career growth, upper management employees act all high and mighty, continuing to hire more contractors when there is no space, rarely converts contractors to full-time employees.

Pros

This role is flexible time wise. It provides a lot of down time within one shift. The supervisors were understanding about errors, and supportive when training. Very small amount of training required.

Cons

Have to be able to watch and listen two two television shows simultaneously.

Pros

The office building was nice and there are some great people that worked there.

Cons

The leadership was a bunch of men just trying to protect their own egos and line their own pockets. I never worked anywhere that felt as dismissive of women as TiVo.
