A great place to work

Pros

In my experience, management is totally behind the "family first" concept and respects employees' ability to balance work and life without requiring time-clock punching. The company also provides lots of personal education opportunities to employees.

Cons

It's a very, very large company. Sometimes it's hard to know what's going on in related areas because of the number of people and locations invovled.

Pros

It's an at home, employee position. Good for college students, those who work at home freelancing. You are paid via direct deposit.

Cons

It's a very short seasonal job. Many of the assignments end earlier than management claims. Pay varies depending on the assignment.
