      Not worth staying here

      Pros

      Really casual/chill and free food on certain days. Didn't have to stay OT, so that was nice.

      Cons

      There is SO much favoritism and lack of training. I'm not sure about every team, but on my team there were people who shouldn't have gotten a raise or moved up. Even if someone on your team works 10x harder and knows more than the person with the higher position based on favoritism it doesn't matter. Shows you how you move up in this company. I was a newb and I knew just based on how things were running after staying for awhile that it was time to leave. It's no wonder why there are many people quitting. To summarize, you deal with people who don't know how to teach, favoritism, crappy documentation that won't help you learn how to use the app on your own in order to get things done (everyone including managers agree with this), terrible leadership, and some managers that are really condescending.

      QAS was a frustrating, exhausting company with little room for advancement.

      Pros

      QAS makes a point to hire hard-working, hard-playing people, so you will inevitably work with a driven group of people. Most employees are interesting and knowledgeable people. You will always have a sense of the direction the company is headed (according to management). Annual meetings and company parties are often lively, and middle/upper management makes a concentrated effort to meet you when you first sign on.

      Cons

      Outside of the sales force, advancement is really limited. Certain individuals are clearly marked out for advancement, though not necessarily because they are the highest performers. Everyone else is encouraged to work hard for no raises or bonuses, or pushed into obviously dead-end projects with little-to-no fiscal benefit to the company (therefore no recognition from higher up). You receive regular performance reviews but it seemed clear (in the Tech department) that these had little to no bearing on the decisions that were made for advancement/project assignment. . Sales team is treated like the star football player at a high school, and often get away with treating everyone else poorly. Additionally, you would expect more flexibility from a tech company (like the ability to work from home if sick, or dress more casually for those not in sales). Work/life balance is awful, and the turn-over rate is ridiculously high.
