      Pros

      Lots of great people are there. They have great benefits that help you feel well taken care of. They are also in a great location.

      Cons

      Very splintered development organization. A lack of standards really hurts the effectiveness of individuals, teams, and departments.

      Pros

      They offer Full Time work and OT. You will never have to worry about not working enough hours.

      Cons

      The phones never stop ringing, you never get a break. The sister websites that are no longer updated and employees have to act like they can help the customer when the company has no intention of helping.
