Pros

The time clock has a 15 min window for each shift. Shift is @ 8a, have till 8:07a to be on time. They try to increase employee morale by having monthly acknowledgements (dessert & prizes available), yearly customer service week (they provide food, games & prizes all week.), holiday decorating competitions.

Cons

Each department has a certain place to park, every new employee receives a copy of the color coded map. Because people don't want to walk, many arrive an hour early to get a parking spot by the back door. The back door is for employee entrance only, meaning non- management employees. Mgmt and upper mgmt are allowed to walk through the front door and down the front hallway, non-mgmt isn't allowed to walk down the front hallway for any reason. High turnover. Been here almost three months, three people hired, two people left, they have been hiring for 4 months or more. Entry level position, tons of work, little pay.

Pros

* Work from Home * Management seems to really care * Career mobility within the company * Company is technology agnostic -- if you have interest in a technology, there is a team using it.

Cons

* Large, large company -- sometimes it's a struggle to figure out which team is responsible for a widget. * OMG - beuacratic at times * 401K/PTO/Holidays are slightly below average * Not a bad company -- not a great company
