Pros

- Fast growing. When I first joined, I was told I was joining the "rocket ship" because of how fast they were growing. I figured every business says that but it really felt true here. The company is growing at an incredible rate. During my tenure I saw the IT team go from 20 employees to 100 in a couple years. - The company also just feels high quality. I was proud to tell everyone I worked here. Seeing the customer service be so top-notch really made me feel good about what we were doing. It felt like we actually cared about our customers instead of their wallets. - Great people. Some of the nicest, smartest people I ever had the pleasure of working with were here.

Cons

- Pay wasn't as competitive as I'd like. For as much as I heard sales were going up, my pay didn't really match that rate. - It felt like there was a lot of inter-departmental politics behind the scenes that determined what upgrades to the building would happen. - Very, very white/male workplace.

Pros

They really do care about their employees, They are flexible with single mothers schedules, They have a lot of family friendly events. Like Sport's Night, where you get tickets to a local game for everyone in your family, and yearly zoo trips. I love that they have a doctor on-site that can see everyone in your family as well, and has prescriptions on hand that you don't have to pay for. There's a salon, a gym and a racketball court and I do love that.

Cons

Difficult to move up, and pay is less than most places.
