Pros

Open work environment, casual attire, many employee perks (free lunches, refreshment, holiday parties), great environment to learn a lot about Linux even if you don't have much knowledge coming in. Employees are held accountable for their actions, poor performance and poor attendance is not permitted.

Cons

If you are not prepared to be held accountable for your actions / attendance, you will not have a good time.

Pros

The biggest upside is that you will learn a lot in a very short time (if you work hard). Web Hosting is a fast paced environment, so expect to learn new things every day and even gain a niche in the long run. Also, the managers at WiredTree (Joe/James/Adam/Alexis) are hard working, understanding, and easy going people. They will work from home if you need assistance in any given situation, and most are a call or Instant Message away. They will teach you new things everyday so absorb all that you can. Zac is also a great boss. If you work hard, listen and put in a 100%; he will notice and will reward you. In regards to the staff, you will work with a diverse and brilliant group of individuals, who each have their own knack or specialty. You will learn a lot from your fellow admins, as WiredTree has a tendency to hire team players. Never be afraid to ask questions. It will make working at WiredTree a smooth ride.

Cons

Hard work (if you are lazy). Seriously, if you are looking for an easy check and a place to slack off, this place is not for you. Yes, there will be moments of downtime, but even then you should be working on something proactive. With that said, WiredTree is a great place to work at if you are hard working and motivated. Dress attire is casual, the environment is laid back, and the rewards and play times(Christmas/holiday parties, and in-house pinball tournaments) are just terrific. But you must put in effort to be rewarded. Hard work will not go unnoticed. If you are a new staff member, bring your A game and you will be golden.

Pros

Fun and relaxed work environment, good benefits and the management does not tolerate people that just show up to collect a paycheck. Anyone that doesn't keep up with the rest of the support staff is disciplined or let go. This is exactly how you run a business.

Cons

The work can be pretty hard from time to time and it can be a bit stressful.
