SHARP is a great place to work!

Pros

The culture at SHARP is very positive. They pride themselves on being the best place to work in the "universe". I don't know about that, but it is a great place with a ton of opportunities to move around and find a position that fits for you.

Cons

They have something to a three strike policy in which if you get three "observances" within a year, you could be terminated. Many companies have such policy, but my main complaint is that they consider a sick day an observance. That doesn't even sound legal to me, but I'm no lawyer. I've never called in sick, but that seems pretty messed up.
