Pros

Decent benefits, decent pay, awesome team, everyone was very helpful to answer questions, 401k matching at 6% if I remember correctly.

Cons

Pay could have been better and they covered about half of the health insurance. This position was customer facing and with any job like that a bad customer could really ruin your day. Otherwise the company itself was good. Getting time off was difficult, since it was a small office if one person got the day off then you most likely would get denied. Also you always got your two days off in a week but you would be scheduled to work weekends.
