Pros

Flexible scheduling for most of the year. There is flexible paid time off and unpaid time off that you can use at any time. They ask for a 1 hour notice before using it if you are leaving early. Easy to get the job, no interview, just pass a drug test. Transfers are very easy. Management was easy to get along with.

Cons

Peak. The busiest time of the year is October to December. During that time they may have you doing mandatory extra time. In 2024 it changed from doing 10 hour shifts 4 days per week to doing 12 hour shifts 5 days per week. I don't want to do that again. The turnover during that time is high.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
