Pros

Nothing except coworkers are nice and friendly

Cons

1. They don't give any raise, stocks or bonus to employees. The management enjoys with all the benefits 2. None of the managers are humans. They treat you like **it and abuse your time 3. There's no work/life balance. They make you work 15-16 hours a day 4. They abuse you with green card aspiration and exploit you

Thank you for your feedback on working here at Blackhawk. I’m glad that you found your former colleagues here to be good people—we’ve built a great team here and I’m very proud of that. I do want to point out that your statement about compensation is incorrect. We actually do provide raises and offer a generous employee stock plan, in addition to some great benefits, like our paid-time off for volunteerism. While we do work very hard, work-life balance is absolutely achievable here. If you’d like to share more detail about your experience here, please reach out to me at teri.llach@bhnetwork.com.

Pros

Good management, bonus opportunities, training

Cons

The pay is low. Staffing isn’t enough to meet workload, no performance based raises for entry level employees, and very few promotions available
