Pros

One of the most positive places I've worked. People are very supportive of each other and want to see you succeed. Employees are customer centric, and have a genuine desire to do the right thing for the merchants who use the platform. For people who love unraveling complexity, the challenge is right.

Cons

Information overload and challenges that come with working on legacy systems.

Pros

Free drinks and snacks

Cons

They emphasize culture by planning company wide events, but if you are a “ninja” who is scheduled to work, you will not have the chance to participate. While the rest of the departments went to the holiday party, ninjas who were scheduled to work were not able to go, no exception. You are allotted 10 minutes of away time From your computer. Every other minute must be accounted for. You are basically just going from call to call. I got yelled at one day for spending too much time on notes, and not getting to the next call quicker. This department is completely separate from the other departments at BC. Ninjas only have 30 mins to hang out during the company happy hour before they have to return to their computers, while the other departments hang out or go home.
