Pros

Newer campus, free coffee, water, and tea. Workstations were new and up to date.

Cons

Where do I begin?! My experience there was a nightmare. At first I was really excited to start a new job at a brand new company. However, that started to quickly fade about a month into the job when I started to realize the role I interviewed for didn't match up with the work that was given. I was also never "onboarded" or given any type of training. I brought this up to my manager who KNEW I had no experience in the tasks that was given to me and admitted that the role was different from what I interviewed for but I had to "figure it out it quickly"! I was thrown random tasks that my manager probably didn't even know how to do. When I did ask questions, I was criticized on how I even asked questions! I finally came to my senses and realized that my manager's ONLY concern was how she would benefit from me. Since I was a brand new employee who needed a little more guidance she was willing to give and not having an LPL network, she knew I had nothing to offer her and treated me like I was garbage up until my last minute there.
