Pros

Nice Co-workers Free Snacks Decent salary Management was pretty nice

Cons

I'm not sure if I'm the only person who have experienced this or maybe other women have also experience the same thing. I have seen other women getting harassed in the workplace. I have been sexually assaulted in the restroom.
