Pros

My coworkers are fantastic and the work environment is fairly laid-back.

Cons

I’ve worked for startups and this place definitely has that vibe. The financial bottom-line is a frequent topic of conversation, and urgent deadlines for frivolous projects pop up without end. Don’t work here if you value your mental health or a good paycheck- they won’t pay you what you could be paid anywhere else.

Pros

They were very flexible with me when I had to take time off and supported the fact that I wanted to expand outside of what was in the job description. I was allowed to work on a marketing project and even started tech support training, which I couldn't finish because of the end of my employment.

Cons

Sometimes the work felt very repetitive in the role I was working.
