Pros

Honestly I can't find any pros.

Cons

Let's start saying that the company's website claims its respect and that it values its employees. Reality is that they hire fresh grads because they don't know how other companies work, so they can treat them very poorly. Apart from low salaries, no bonuses or incentives, the work becomes extremely boring, the quality of their products is as bad as management is, and the company has a terrible reputation among its clients. Before applying, just look at other employees job profiles, and ask yourselves WHY THEY ARE LEAVING THE COMPANY AFTER 1 or 2 YEARS? This company ruined my career, my ambition and my curiosity, and I'm sure it will affect my future job applications too.

Pros

totally uncomfortable work environment. if you don't enjoy being happy this is the place for you!

Cons

upper management is terrible - all about putting 150% all the time and not about results at all. VP and President are sexist and there had been sexual harassment complaints against upper management. upper management consistently made fun of the people "nerds" who we were selling to and taunted employees behind closed doors. not flexible about family or personal life. every employee, regardless of how much $ brought in was threatened to be fired on a weekly basis. CEO comes into the office and doesn't speak to anyone or even introduce themselves.

Cons

Incredibly boring. Not challenging. Unrewarding. Management. Working here will make you want to jump in front of the 4-5-6 train.
