Pros

I have never worked with a better group of people. In my role, I am fortunate enough to interact with associates in all areas of the company and I can honestly say that the company has done a great job creating a fun, respectful, and collaborative environment.

Cons

The Company is growing, so there are pains associated with that. However, leadership is great at listening and addressing concerns as they arise.
