Pros

Most of the people that work there are truly good, genuine, people.

Cons

The corporate politics and bureaucracy can feel a bit childish/high school at times. It’s takes years to gain leadership’s trust and even then you might not be rewarded for your accomplishments. Instead promotions and acknowledgements will be given to whoever fits the needs of leadership’s political gains at the time.

Pros

Coworkers are nice enough most of the time. The discount is nice. They're pretty flexible with schedules

Cons

Management doesn't know what they're doing. The pay is bad. Most of the employees are young and act as such. Unreasonable goals, and management breathes down your neck. They'll constantly promise "leadership training" and "advancement opportunity" but nothing ever happens. The sales tactics are terrible. They say the care about customers but every action says it's all just about the metrics. They're constantly cutting costs.
