Pros

Solid company. Very profitable business model. Reliable employer. Good pay for relatively easy work. Fulfilling job if you enjoy helping others.

Cons

Many managers are hired in from the outside as opposed to being promoted from within. As a result, they don't fully understand how the business operates and sometimes get in the way.

Pros

Great opportunities for advancement if willing to work hard. Entrepreneurial company with strong leadership. Sets a high standard and demands excellence. Teammates are very dedicated, among the most talented in the industry, and support one another.

Cons

Challenging pace can sometimes be hard to maintain. The company has grown rapidly over the last several years, which has led to some silos popping up and can make information-sharing a challenge. This is improving recently with effort from management.

Pros

Good location, flexible hours, 25cents soda.

Cons

No interactions with coworkers, it seems that 80% of employees are zombies. Management have no clue of what you are doing. Don't ask, don't tell policy. Meetings are useless. Raises are ridiculous. You can be busy for 3 days without having a minute for yourself but can be sitting around for a whole week doing nothing. Supervisors are a joke. No communication with management. Some employees don't even have a degree. This company is just a joke.
