Pros

Absolutely nothing.. I mean ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

Cons

Unrealistic upper management, pathetic company benefits, the pay is a joke, no growth within the company, your work will be taken credit for by your incompetent manager's, hostile work culture to name a few... Let me tell about the company's famous Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) as they call it. You would expect the motive of this program is to bring up to speed employee's who are wanting in certain areas of their work. But in reality what the program does is embarrass you amidst your Supervisor, team head and the HR rep by bringing up your faults which might sound like it's not a big deal but they are mere reasons to put on paper so that you don't sue the company for firing you. What it essentially does is stress you out to a point that you sign the resignation letter and leave the company one fine day amidst this PIP. I went into a deep depression because of this particular company's policy... A million thanks to my Wife, family and friends in helping me overcome my trauma... Please please please do not ever join this company.. I don't wish my worst enemy to go through what I went through....

Pros

I get to eat outside when its warm and the free coffee is decent I guess.

Cons

1. The building is designed like a psychiatric ward. There are no windows and there is no decor on the walls. CEO doesn't like when we put things on the walls. Really weird. 2. Management is just not good. They don't understand HIPPA or employee privacy; additionally they lack empathy. 3. Safety is not safe at all. they treat their job like they are supposed to micromanage and nitpick certain individuals on the first floor but people on the second floor walk around wearing no PPE. 4. Management cannot handle any level of push back. If the boss says the sky is blue and you say no I think its cyan, youre fired the next day. They LOVE to fire people for pushback but let people who treat people nasty hang around. 5. The roaches....thats the comment 6. Just a little bit of racist energy and its not good. They dont appreciate black workers and it shows blatantly STAY AWAY. 7. PTO sucks. 8. Unless you are outside of a minority group, there is a ceiling and you will reach it quickly. No room for upward mobility if you dont bear the color they desire.
