Pros

The people that work there made it worth going into that building everyday. Though some days you weren't allowed to talk to each other. The fact that you can work on several different projects was enjoyable.

Cons

I'm not sure where to start. Weekend work is required at least once a month (the holiday months are special, there are two weekends required per month). If you are salary, you can get a verbal Comp day when you work the weekend but only if you work a minimum of 8 hrs. If you work less, then you do not get any compensation. The last week of the month is blacked out, you are not allowed to do anything after work nor take days off. Expect to be at work from 8am until about 9pm to 10pm during that time. Most mornings start with hearing an executive member using foul language towards another person that you can hear across the building. You will be degraded about once a month by the director. You can expect every month to be behind on 'revenue goals'. Which is then your fault and you have to make up for it by working overtime without compensation. When you do decide to leave, you will be further degraded in order to make you feel like you will not be good enough to work at another place. One year is about all you need to learn the basic skills for the job and then take it somewhere else.

Pros

It's not quite a prison - You do receive a check regularly. Average benefits and pay. Beware if you are salaried. You may meet a few good coworkers. And that's where it ends.

Cons

This place is utterly soul crushing. Management cares only about output and the bottom line. They constantly put the cart before the horse and make unrealistic promises to customers. This in turn creates chaos, disorganization, and puts strain on the diminished workforce. More stress and strain leads to mistakes and errors, downtime, and rework. Turnover is rampant, creating an even more stressful environment. Anyone that says, "Hey, that will not work or this is wrong" has a target painted on their back by management, and is likely walked out the door. Don't even bother giving a two week notice, you will likely be questioned and walked out immediately. Management turns a blind eye to the turnover and is content with overextending operations on barebones staffing. Weekends are considered regular weekdays, long hours are the norm. Remember that average pay? If you are salaried, that nice check doesn't matter as you are expected to work 12 -14 hours a day, 7 days a week, no overtime pay. I could go on and on, from poor equipment and facility status, lack of proper systems, lack of career development, favoritism, and blatant disrespect, but all you need to know is DO NOT WORK HERE! Would not wish this place on my worst enemy.

Pros

Good central location for commuters

Cons

Cold, dank environment. Very unfriendly place no matter how hard you try to stay positive. Depts. do not communicate with each other. Mgmt shows no appreciation even when you work efficiently. Must be perfect. Bonuses and raises were promised, then pulled from under you if you are not. Don't waste your time interviewing.
