Pros

They pay you. Many of your co-workers are very friendly. The interview process is effortless, almost anyone can get a job here.

Cons

I worked in the software development department of Labelmaster. There is a severe culture of blame. Within two weeks of working here, I noticed a very common pattern of defensive communication. Within six weeks of working here, I discovered why when I received a written reprimand for poor performance - again, this is after only six weeks of full time salaried employment. I left immediately after this and couldn't be more confident about the decision. If I had stayed even a day longer, I would have had to join the CYA culture that every one of my co-workers was forced to adopt. There is severe ignorance at all levels of management regarding technology. Task direction is extremely poorly communicated and never documented. Project direction is nearly nonexistent as a result of being subject to excessive review by executive committee. Arbitrary and fluid deadlines are strictly enforced with harsh blame and reprimands. Archaic, conservative business culture is forced on all employees. Based on extremely high turnover in the software department (three other developers left within a week of me), Labelmaster will likely begin exploiting junior developers. Please be cautious.

Pros

Good office location. Public transportation is available from nearly every part of the local area, and the free way is nearby.

Cons

Management leads through fear and intimidation, often handing handing out projects without knowing the end goals and then blaming the project leaders when those projects don't fit into an unknown criteria. Given the chance, work/life balance would be non-existent. Pay and benefits are below average. Good luck getting anyone in HR to respond to you if you're not in an upper management position. Lots of in-office politics and cliques that halt any forward movement on big projects until just before those projects need to be complete. Employees are treated like objects, causing a large amount of turnover in recent years. Management has, in the past, asked employees to post good reviews on Glassdoor to boost the employee rating.

Pros

Easy application process, good health and dental benefits.

Cons

I was often asked to do work that was FAR outside of my pay grade. When I addressed this issue I was told that the companies awards those who stick with it basically. Once they had me doing work, for which others were being paid over 100% more, for a while they were going to consider paying me what the work is worth. The software department in Seattle runs on intimidation. Interdepartmental work is unfriendly and nit-picky. Instead of working together as a team to create the best product for the customer, the ideal is to passive-aggressively avoid the problems. Trying to avoid the issue all together or rejecting a problem because it was at first not explained 'the correct way'.
