Pros

Health benefits on day one Managers now can participate in career choice training Can take an extended leave of absence if needed. Four day work weeks.

Cons

Area managers gets paid once a month. Shift for Area managers is an average of 12 hour days. Leadership can change shift and department day to night and night to day with no advanced notice. Area managers are expected to cover the responsibilities of their departments and leadership can keep adding as many extra tasks based on business need. Was told by upper management either sink or swim and if you don’t complete the tasks, we will bring in some else.

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.
