Pros

It was quite the learning experience about greed.

Cons

Worst company to work for in the United States. It was a reoccurring nightmare every day. Unethical, lying, cheating management and zero values besides making money by scamming others.

Pros

Health benefits (although not very good). Once in a while there is a party. Coworkers are nice and the office atmosphere is casual.

Cons

LONG hours, high stress, shady practices, no or barely any yearly increases in pay, no 401k match, bad management. No growth opportunities. Expect to be there at least two full days for your "interview" doing real work unpaid (if you don't make it that long then don't expect a call back offering you a job)

Pros

Get out of work at 6:00 every day.

Cons

Beware! They pay higher than the market bears on their base salaries BUT they don't match on the 401k. They give three weeks vacation BUT make you take it for things like coming in an hour late because you have a doctor appt.
