Pros

Halfway decent pay for someone young with no college degree. Good benefits.

Cons

Extremely low morale working environment with no recognition of a job well done, only get recognized when something is wrong, very poor management with zero employee support, continuously adding to your workload with no extra time or extra pay to do the work, unable to retain employees, they don't let you schedule days off even months in advance, no Mondays or Fridays off, no month end off, no days before or after holidays off, etc. If you survive long enough and finally decide you want to advance to a new department or role you will either be discouraged from doing so or managment will purposefully make it extremely difficult for you to do so because they are so understaffed they don't want you to leave their department. Overall terrible company to work for that does not value it's employees and I am thankful every day that I do not work there any more. Do not recommend ANYONE to work for this company.

Pros

It was an amazing team of highly talented people.

Cons

Leadership did not value the employees. It was a very high stress, low morale work environment even before they had massive global IT layoffs. Then it got worse.
