Pros

Present themselves as positive and happy.

Cons

-The pro is just a facade people put on -As you've read the other comments you can probably guess, management is a joke. -People department (hr) is not there for you. -This company is so full of themselves it reminds you of the southpark episode where they smell their own farts.

Pros

The benefits are good but the wages are not very high. This is a great job for students but it's hard for me to see it as a place to grow.

Cons

Your either in or out of the stereotype they want, If you are outside it is harder to grow. I've seen a lot of talented hardworking people disregarded just because they were not a certain way.
