Pros

Great product Nice office People are good to work with

Cons

Just going down hill. Not sure if it's the market or something being done wrong. Just isn't what it used to be. Leadership is weak and constantly changing. Not a clear direction or career growth. Keep low expectations.

Pros

As others have said, there are a lot of good things about working at CBT Nuggets: * Free snacks, coffee, and catered lunches * Fun work environment * Decent pay * Very good medical benefits * Comfortable, open floor plan These combine to make the experience of working at CBT Nuggets an extremely pleasant one. But...

Cons

This is a company that doesn't actually know what it's doing or where it's going. There are no clear visions coming from leadership - or sometimes a chaotic hodgepodge of conflicting visions - and the management is frankly odd. Sometimes it seems like the whole company is just a plaything for the owner. But the worst con for working there is that apparently, jobs are not secure, regardless of competency. I noticed early on that turnover was high. I couldn't imagine why anyone would choose to leave, since everything seems great. But peoples' last days were announced all the time. I guessed that they were going on to other things, like Amazon. Sadly, I was wrong. Regardless of the circumstances of an employee's departure, they are announced the same way, so I realized after the fact that a lot of people were simply being let go, without any clear reasons why.

They Hired Me and Then They Fired Me

Pros

I wouldn't know, they rescinded their job offer a week before I was supposed to start

Cons

Not clear on communication. I was told I would have to travel at my own expense for the first 2 weeks of employment but then there was some confusion and someone made it sound like one week. I let them know I could definitely do the one week but without discussion, they rescinded their job offer. There was nothing in my contract that stated I had to be there for the first two weeks of employment.
