Pros

I think the people working at TiVo are some of the most dedicated coworkers I have worked with. TiVo goes to great lengths to provide a fun and engaging work environment. We have free Ice cream parties, beer busts and lots of food, every holiday is celebrated and the summer carnival are just a few of some of the great things TiVo does for it's employees and their families. My times for work have always been flexible, and I am able to work from home at least one day a week. My supervisor recognizes the hours and effort I put in on a weekly basis, and often allows me comp-time for days off.

Cons

I work a lot of hours, commuting from Santa Cruz sucks. Would be nice to have a satellite office in Scotts Valley. Frequently the job requires me to be up past midnight and even til 2 and 3 in the morning - when this happens on a weekly basis it is really tough. I do enjoy working from home the day after, but the late night will throw off your body clock so its not very healthy to do it frequently. Most of my work deals with the most visible parts of our company's image so it requires much flexibility and attention to detail.

Pros

This role is flexible time wise. It provides a lot of down time within one shift. The supervisors were understanding about errors, and supportive when training. Very small amount of training required.

Cons

Have to be able to watch and listen two two television shows simultaneously.

Pros

The office building was nice and there are some great people that worked there.

Cons

The leadership was a bunch of men just trying to protect their own egos and line their own pockets. I never worked anywhere that felt as dismissive of women as TiVo.
