Pros

Coworkers are nice, but they're all leaving so don't get attached to them.

Cons

Gosh, where to begin? This place was, hands down, the worst experience at a company that I had ever experienced in working over 30 years. DO NOT fall for the lies to get you in the door. Here's something they won't lie about, the hours are 8:30-5:30. If you're late - naughty list! But they do expect you to work late when working on high profile projects or to meet deadlines - but there is no give and take. Just take. It is disorganized to say the least and run by misogynistic jerks. There's 2 women in leadership positions and I think they're both related to the billionaire owners. The owners don't care about you, and nor does your boss. They will bleed you dry, then chew you up and spit you out and you'll be a shell of your former self. Save yourself the hassle, the bs, the lies, and the blip on your resume and find another job --- there are plenty more in this area.

Pros

Really the only positive aspect of working in office in tampa is the employees.

Cons

The company doesn’t seem to care about their in-office employees. Over the years they have stopped giving any perks to working for their corp office - there used to be a sense of care with company picnics, raffles, warehouse furniture sales for employees, EOY bonuses, even holiday parties, but all that is gone now. They don’t even offer separate PTO and sick time, it’s all lumped in together. But wait, that’s not all. Last year an employee came dressed up as ICE for Halloween and HR didn’t do anything about it, which was shocking to so many employees but with the political leaning of the C suite, I can’t say that’s surprising at all. And finally, there have been a handful of layoffs over the past few years and one thing you should keep in mind is if you get laid off for any reason, no matter your tenure at the company you will only get one week of severance. There have been several ex employees who have worked for 5+ years and have had very little compensation for it. Save your time and go apply for a company who actually cares about the people who work for them.
