Pros

Good working environment. Staff is like family and very supportive. Healthy snacks are offered every week. Constantly changing and interesting workload.

Cons

While the environment is positive, the ever-changing policies (paid holidays, etc. ) are due to middle (micro) management. The insurance is good if it's only covering one person. If you add a child or spouse the out of pocket expense quadruples, which is devastating when the pay is just above poverty level. With the company sale to Recorded Books in Maryland, we've lost many good managers. No handicap bathroom.
