Pros

The work environment is amazing. The people here make it all worth it. It's very relaxed, break room is great, and the company is growing tremendously. There is an enormous amount of room for growth within the company itself. Benefits are very reasonable and affordable. The ability to work remote/from home is a huge perk.

Cons

Overtime is expected. Major growing pains as the amount of work that is to be done does not compensate for only $15-$17 an hour. I have never worked so hard at a job... it is something I am proud of but it's disappointing at the same time. My work life balance has pretty much been out the window the past 6 months.

Pros

Teammate relationships during difficult days.

Cons

Paying out executive bonuses and Sr leaders while mid-level and lower employees had their bonus removed and their stock options taken away. This company is the epitome of making the rich richer while allowing the employees who are busting their bottoms to drown without monetary compensation. It was heartbreaking for me to see my team unable to receive any bonus monies while our executives received millions even though the decision they made resulted in the stock price dropping by over $100.
