Pros

Decent pay and opportunity to get some useful certifications.

Cons

Horrible hours of 4 AM to 1 PM. When you try to bring up concerns about environmental issues that can potentially be a hazard, but aren’t in the metrics for what the company considers a “risk”, you are ignored. The on-boarding is unorganized and there is a unhealthy fixation on productivity metrics that limit any sort of out of the box thinking a good EHS specialist may want to do. Additionally, you will be pulled away from your job to help stow and pick packages, which is outside of your job description.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
