Pros

- 9/80 schedule, but normal to work on off-Fridays because of the workload - Nice office facilities and up-to-date technology - State-of-the-art theater for employees

Cons

- Normal for manager to speak disrespectfully and unprofessionally to employees. Culture of public shaming. - Long work hours - Misled about job tasks during interviews - Micromanagement, including focus on minute details instead of performing value-added work - Managers only focused on completing their own job tasks and not your development as an employee

Pros

9/80 schedule was great. Cool company and some really neat technology.

Cons

Little to no growth opportunities, plus little awareness by senior leadership in some teams. Good ol' boy feeling in some teams
