Pros

401k, Benefits, employees with high tenure

Cons

Building outdated, training was unorganized and inconsistent. New employee expectations are unrealistic. The supervisor was a micro manager with a narcissistic personality. I've never experienced anyone so rude and entitled. Someone stated, "dont let her push you out". That was a RED FLAG.. So, to survive you'll need to demonstrate a high tolerance to criticism. There was absolutely zero praise just criticism. I was highly disappointed, and shocked. Especially coming from a corporate environment. I couldn't run out of this place fast enough.. My advice is Stay Away!!!

Pros

good health benefits, 10% bonus

Cons

If you also work from another state, you must come to the Main office in Houston for Work. There is no excuse for this.
