Pros

Incredibly good lunch room. Excellent manager in IT, Dawn. She's great!

Cons

Everything single other thing. Within my first 2 weeks of working there an email was sent out basically telling everyone to watch their backr. Apparently someone had just been fired for "sexual harassment". Except it turned out that all the guy did was approach a girl, in the lunch room, one time, and ask if she'd like to go to dinner. Then she reported him to HR for sexual harassment, dude lost his job. You could hear women bragging about the different guys they've gotten fired, it's a sick twisted place. I also got written up because a scuff mark was on my mandatory dress shoes. I had to walk a LOT, of course there's going to be scuffs throughout the day.
