Pros

Great discount. Great benefits and 401k.

Cons

I cannot tell you how many months of 9am-10pm shifts I worked (average weeks of 72 hours). The pay is okay, but when compared to your hours, you maybe barely making minimum wage. No matter how well you are doing in one area; whether it be your sales or sops (stats that evaluate your performance) your DM will always find a way to make feel like you are not good at your job. I sadly worked for the company 2.5 years and feel like it was a waste of my life.

Pros

Work-life balance is genuinely good. Flexible and not a grind culture.

Cons

Middle management is the weak point. Several managers are promoted developers with no real management training or experience, they know the tech but not how to lead people. Project structure is disorganized and compensation lags behind market rate.
