Pros

The company offers good health insurance

Cons

- not allowed to sit for a 13 hour shift - senior management can move you to night shift without even a days notice if they want to due to "business needs" - job is basically just writing people up and trying to find ways to make them work harder - senior management could not care less about what you need to do the job successfully or how to support you, it's all a numbers game for them - salaried employees don't even get free Amazon Prime, and during the Christmas season you'll be working 60 hour weeks from Thanksgiving to Christmas with no OT or performance bonuses

Pros

Cross training that helps for faster growth and more experience.

Cons

Sometimes you gotta hurry and find equipment or pit equipment before others snag them and leave you with the “bad” ones. That take forever to get repaired.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
