Pros

- Within my first month at NWA, I witnessed five former employees stopping by to visit people. This struck me - this truly seems to be a place where lasting friendships are formed. This lends to the friendly, welcoming, almost family-like work environment. - The office environment and overall culture is phenomenal. Every day you will hear laughter and see genuine smiles. People work hard here yet are honestly happy. I can see why many of my coworkers have been with the company over ten years. - There are many opportunities to grow and move. Over the past 2 months alone I myself have moved departments along with several other employees in this Pasadena location alone, and as the company is growing there are more and more people moving up in all of our locations. - The benefits you can receive through the company are fantastic. They do work to take care of their employees and their families. - There are lots of places to grab lunch at within walking distance - The floor NWA Pasadena location is on has a great view of the mountains and Pasadena and on, with lots of natural lighting. - Overall I am certainly impressed by this company and the comradery within the office. It is a pleasure and a joy to work here. I highly recommend working for this company. I hope more and more people get to experience what I have at the NWA Pasadena location.

Cons

- Just something to be aware of - the parking in the structure at NWA is a monthly fee and is not paid by the company – the cost will come out of your paycheck if you so choose. There are FREE parking options though! A free option is to move your car every 2 hours once the 2-hour parking limit starts on the surrounding streets at 11:00am. There are also a couple of streets nearby that have no time limit and another with a 4-hour parking limit. Several coworkers of mine, including myself, do this during our breaks.

Thank you for your review! NWA has always prided itself in maintaining that family feel. With nine offices spread throughout the western part of the US, promoting work-life balance is one way we ensure that feeling isn’t lost.
