Pros

I think this is a good company to work, I have been with them for almost 3 years. There has been some recent changes but all for the betterment of the company. The ability to move around if you flexible to move, you will grow fast in this company.

Cons

Seasonal trends in operations can be a little challenging when you are not salaried. Hopefully you have a good supervisor or that can make things a lot difficult.

Pros

My manager supports personal development and work-life balance. The people I work with are fantastic. I have had many good experiences and opportunities, and my salary is very competitive.

Cons

This past year has been a nightmare. The new CEO fired hundreds of managers who had been there. Perhaps he saw tenure as the inability to change. The new CEO is also bringing in a bunch of people from Pepsi where he used to work. Although I agree with a "fresh eyes" approach for changing culture, I believe the new CEO and his team are short-sighted. You can't have people who don't understand the current culture and the complexity of the business making major decisions about the future of the company. I think their approach is all wrong.

Pros

I made some great friends while at this company and got to work on some fun projects. Much of it depends on who you work for and what geographic location you are in.

Cons

The company overall makes decisions that don't make sense. It could be because they are going through a large cultural shift. Employee perks to attract good talent, did not exist at my level.
