Pros

• They give you raises based on your performance • They give shoutout Recognition • They are very supportive • They gave Stipends until they stopped • You can get career advancements quickly just know your job just be mindful of the department because each one has different rules they may make you lose your job. • They DO listen to feedback and and try to work on making the company better for us.

Cons

• You will constantly get moved around to different teams and only have two weeks training to learn everything. • They will constantly change around metric goals. One minute is impossible to reach in the next minute is reachable. • Their training is basic knowledge until you get in the field and you see there’s so much more that they did not teach you that should’ve been involved in training • So much unnecessary pressure that they put on you with people that do not have a payroll background • They hired a bunch of people that did not have a payroll background just to eventually lay off those people becaus they didn't have what it took to truly train because the company because overwhelmingly busy. • You will constantly feel like you are about to lose your job because they are so quick to let you go over a setback
