Benefits: medical, dental, events, gym, vision

Pros

Use ATS (application tracking system)

Cons

Literally got a "not moving forward with your application" about 4 minutes after applying. It you just want to shot gun your resume go for it. If you actually to the research to determine you are a good fit apply, just realize that no human will make the first round decision on bringing you in or not Good Luck....I won't again with them.
