Pros

Great team of people to work with, management is improving but still disconnected from reality. Work life balance good, work from home flexibility in some departments but appears discretional. It could not have been all that bad, I worked there for a long time.

Cons

Poor poor salary. Not even in the ball park, at least not in UP. Other locations maybe due to the cost of living. Career advancement is lacking but improvements are being made for career path definition so its not there yet but getting there, slowly. Seems feedback form the employees is often ignored.

Do yourself a favour and keep looking or if your desperate for a job then take it but keep looking

Pros

They will hire basically anybody even if you have no experience for the job for which you are applying. You get your birthday, Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve off as a stat holiday.

Cons

The pay is very low, the training is mainly train yourself and some of the products are terrible. Micromanaging at its finest! All you hear is about how much money the company is making but come review time they do everything they can to make sure you don't get a raise and if you do it doesn't even cover the cost of living.
