Pros

-Generally speaking, the employees are what make you want to come back into work the next day. -The software and hardware are more up to date than most places I've worked.

Cons

-Told in training that managers will take escalations. This is not true. They will do everything possible not to get on the phone regardless of the situation. -You spend all your time being yelled at by the customers only to turn around to look for support from supervisors, and the get nothing from them. You're stuck with a pissed off customer and no tools to fix the situation. -Mandatory overtime and completely inconsistent scheduling. They are not an employee centered company. -There's a reason why they have a class of new hires each week: they can't hold onto their employees.

Pros

- lots of people care about the work - lots of cool projects to dig into and grow from

Cons

- owned by Amazon so you'd have to tolerate the constant threat of layoffs (I guess that's most big tech companies nowadays) - heavily pushing us to utilize AI solutions anywhere we can - not a lot of room for upward advancement

Pros

Free lunch and good snacks

Cons

The work culture is toxic. No one knows what’s going on and refuses to fix problems. CEO will contact you on weekends. No work life balance. There were launches where we would sleep only 2-3 hours a day for weeks. You will work through holidays and there is no overtime or any thanks for your effort. People will always point the finger at others and find one person to blame and that person will be punished via demotion. No accountability from the top and no patience. Others at the top will take credit for your wins and you will be punished for anything that goes wrong. Harassment is rampant. Women are not safe in this workplace. People of color are not safe. People are encouraged to bully each other and talk behind each other’s back about their personal life. There is no professionalism. People are quick to backstab you here. You can give up your whole life for this job but there still won’t be a ladder to an upwards position.
