Pros

There are no pros on working here

Cons

I don’t know how else to say this - but I hate it here. Our building hasn’t changed for almost 10 years. I still work at a cubicle that looks like something out of a horror movie. Our restrooms look like a 1950 high school restroom. Not to mention the flickering lights in our office alongside the dark gloomy infrastructure. Culture is not good. Pay is beyond terrible. If I had to guess I think our CEO makes under 6 figures - which should give you a clue about their “culture” and how they really treat their employees. Get ready to start at a 40k salary to feed your family, pay off student loan debt, and other daily expenses.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
