Pros

It's a job. Nothing really enjoyable. They did promote being active which meant taking a break and walking around the block around lunch time, when you were already supposed to be clocked off for lunch.

Cons

Very unprofessional and unorganized business. Ran into some ethical issues and ended up leaving job as things were not being run according to protocols. Very bad thing to have when you run a company based on following protocols and instructions for making specialized media.

Pros

Monday through Friday work week.

Cons

Apart from company parties, you only see SLT higher ups during audits. No bonuses awarded after exceeding revenue goals for two months straight. Cleanliness of buildings need major improvements. No room for growth even when performing other duties not listed in the job description. Cross training to keep people overworked and underpaid while many work from home. No consistency in product requirements to maintain product specifications clear cut. Time and attendance PTO only applies to specific departments, not across the board. Constant layoffs increase work for already struggling departments.
