Pros

Warning: Any reviews of this organization posted before May 2018 do not accurately reflect the changes that have happened in the organization!! After some reorganization and downsizing, this company has become a vacuum for talent and leadership. With great managers leaving (either on their own or after their position was cut) there's a ton of gaps that need to be filled. If you're a self-started and work well with ambiguity, you would do very well in this company. This company is also really great for building your resume if you are changing careers or trying to break into the market at entry level. The work from home capabilities are amazing.

Cons

Warning: Any reviews of this organization posted before May 2018 do not accurately reflect the changes that have happened in the organization!! With the huge loss of knowledge and talent, it is very tough to get by. Everyone is disgruntled, confused, and scared, and it shows in the way people work and the way they communicate with each other. Nobody trusts anyone, everyone is ruthlessly trying to advocate for why their role is more important than someone else's...it's terrible. At this point, even the work from home capability is a negative - everyone is so checked out and disengaged that they end up not even working on their work-from-home days.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
