Pros

Pay 14 bucks to start Free Plan Super Smart team mates. Leaving my team was the worst part of loosing my job. They were all smart, witty and funny

Cons

Fear based management No rules or policies No paid time off My first TM (team manager) spoke to me for a total of 10 minutes during my first 6 months there. She was fired without explanation after 360 reviews. My second TM was present during all team meetings but was usually busy on a laptop IM'ing with someone else rather than participating. Even during my firing she was on her phone texting. I was given no information outside of a prepared packet and was asked to sign zero paperwork. I was escorted from the building like a criminal and the only reason anyone knew I had left was because of a pre-written email I was able to send when I returned to my desk to gather my things. Fear for your job makes you write an exit email months before you loose your job

Pros

Health insurance from day 1 is always nice.

Cons

Hostile work environment. They are constantly hiring and firing. If you don't meet the metrics, be prepared to walk. Management fires people and says nothing to their teammates. You can take a reduction in pay to get vacation time which I found completely ridiculous. I did not ever feel like they appreciated the hard work that I did. I exceeded all metrics, trained new hires, and monitored the team chat for assisting on calls. People who have worked there for 2 years have never gotten a raise. In addition to the above, I found the people there to be extremely unhealthy. Netflix offers food in the break room, but all of it is cheap with high sodium levels and MSG. simply add water, heat and serve. I'll pass. The customers can also be downright abusive at times. Why on earth do you feel the need to cuss someone out when your movie didn't arrive? Calm down folks!
