Pros

Flexible schedules, people are pretty nice

Cons

ever since LDiscovery bought Kroll Ontrack, its like were all just swirling down the toilet. The environment already wasnt very good and morale was horrible. It's just gotten worse. Jobs are constantly being moved to Poland while the threat of layoffs persists in the US. . Senior Management are all friends and family of the CEO. butt kissing gets promotions while everyone else suffers. It was nice, but this place has rapidly become a job I absolutely hate. I never know if I will have a job after the weekend. i try to keep a good attitude. it's easy to hate a job. but lately there's been nothing but bad things happening.
