Pros

They have free food from time to time.

Cons

Heavy favoritism... certain people get away with anything while others are micromanaged or ignored. If you’re wondering why they’re constantly hiring, it’s because people are constantly leaving. The turnover is extremely high. Expect to be overworked and underpaid long hours with minimal recognition or appreciation. Believe the reviews and save yourself the trouble of joining this team.
