Pros

"A fantastic environment with exciting, inspiring work that constantly challenges you to grow and create. You’re given ample opportunities to share your ideas, see them come to life, and continue developing your own skills.

Cons

Simply put, the pay. If the compensation had been higher, it would have been a much harder decision to leave. However, it was relatively easy to find a similar role elsewhere that paid over twice as much.

Pros

They were very flexible with hours and it was a fun place to work. There was lots of downtime to do other things while on the clock, and an e-bike to get around campus quickly.

Cons

Toward the end they got pretty strict about keeping your computer on a certain tab to take online tickets, and you could get in trouble for not doing it. It’s tedious work overall.
