Pros

Remote work, fairly flexible schedule

Cons

Nobody has any idea what's happening, and you will get told to do three different things by three different people, and they all need to be done right now.

Pros

Some people could be great to work with. Health insurance wasn't awful.

Cons

This company doesn't even try to hide the fact that it prefers cheap labor over quality labor. You'll meet someone, work with for four months, and then they'll be replaced by someone in India who won't last longer than six months (because this company is so cheap that it can't even pay a living wage in India). They've laid off whole departments on a whim, with no plans on how to make up for lost revenue or support. Pass over any opportunities from them unless you're desperate.
