Pros

Great Benefits, People I worked with

Cons

Operations was very political when it comes to Team Leads and Management. When it came time to layoff people you could tell they kept their friends and did not base it on overall performance. At times operations was very inefficient and unorganized but you cannot expect much from management that lacked proper training.
