Excellent Company & amazing people

Business Outlook

Pros

A company & products one can feel proud to represent. The people you work with are interesting/inspiring & the team oriented atmosphere is unique. Benefits - medical, 401k, internships. Promotes from within.

Cons

Not enough feedback or recognition on performance, but it depends on your manager/dept. It's rare, but sometimes the customer isn't right and the staff feels demoralized when bad behavior is rewarded. Little room for advancement, so talent walks out the door.
