Pros

Tiffs Treats and bagels every once and awhile were nice. The Xmas party is cool. Coworkers were generally fun people.

Cons

Despite what management says, very little of the company's strategy and organization are based on legitimate metrics or planned by experience professionals. Egos trump logic consistently so there is red tape everywhere. As a result, most everything from seat positions to job requirements to pay structure is in constant chaos. Honestly, though, I could deal with that. What I couldn't deal with was the gross condescention, passive aggression, and ineptness oozing from management. They have built a culture that revolves around the daily dollar, not long-term success. That means an off week might just get you berated, and it means you had better be shoving the most expensive deal down every customer's gullet. Also, great idea bringing people in through a temp agency and cutting most of them riiiiight around the time they are supposed to get converted for real benefits. True loyalty right there.

Wretched job, wretched company

Pros

Free food sometimes, fun parties, good co-workers

Cons

Embarrassingly low pay, rampant discrimination and nepotism, micro-micro management, extremely restrictive environment, no opportunities for growth unless you are one of management's puppets. Maturity and skill level go unnoticed. Prior experience goes unnoticed. INTELLIGENCE... unnoticed. This job is fine if you're right out of high school and still live with your parents. Otherwise, don't bother.

Watch out for mass layoffs without warning

Pros

The coworkers are great. Facilities are nice and will be even nicer when they move to a new building next year.

Cons

If you choose to work for them, keep this in mind: I was there almost 3 years then laid off (along with dozens of others) without warning. A decision made by execs who often spouted how much their "employees matter" and that "we're all a family". Turns out, we didn't matter much.
