Great company that has helped me tremendously along the way. Increasingly, management is creating opportunities for developing people and leaders. Also, check out some perks: - Onsite medical clinic - Free mental health counseling (8 sessions per year) - Personal trainer - Lowered insurance premiums in the last year - Increased 401k match in the last year (to 50% of 6%) - Record level of internal promotions in the last year

Cons

- Super fast pace isn't for everyone

Pros

• Amazing people at all levels within the company • Constant opportunies for personal and professional growth • Great benefits, perks, and amenities • Competitive compensation The folks that work at this company are the best you will ever have the opportunity to work with. I promise, if you ask anyone at Sweetwater what the best part is, they will say the people. Everyone here is on another level of smarts, passion, and creativity. There is also an unbelievable amount of scrappiness and grit amongst the people that work here that is not often seen at companies of this size. It is a pleasure to be surrounded by so many great people. Since starting here I have personally had the opportunity to hold a variety of different positions, some of which did not exist when I started. This is a really great showcase of the growth opportunity for those that are willing to work for it. In the same vein, there are a number of positions that I applied for that I did not get. While disappointing at the time, looking back it is really clear that those above me saw a different path for me, and they were right. The management team here truly gets to know who you are and helps you get to where you need to be, which turns out to be where you really wanted to be. The total compensation is fantastic overall. Between the pay, insurance options, 401k (great match and options to choose from), amenities available (In house Doctor, arcade, diner, coffee shop, full service concierge), and local discounts you could not ask for more.

Cons

Anything mentioned here would just be nit-picking...
