Pros

Good teammates, projects, pay structure

Cons

- NO PARKING ON CAMPUS!! (They expect employees to find public/street parking nearby and walk almost a mile to reach work. The way we found about is by parking tickets, no internal communication was provided about the new rules). What kind of workplace is that? - DELIBERATE DELAY IN INTERNAL GREEN CARD application process by immigration team. Every little thing (wage determination, ETA filing, etc takes almost triple the time it used to take a year ago) - ANNOUNCING REMOVAL OF INTERNAL FEEDBACK FORUM with very little notice. Multiple people have expressed support against the removal as no alternate channel was provided. - A few other cons include: No 401k match/orthodontic coverage in the first 1 year, sub-standard free Friday lunch, only 6 holidays per year (only 5 since most work on Thanksgiving), horrible middle management

Pros

Advancement opportunities, great at developing skills, great place to learn a skill and grow your resume, or grow with the company.

Cons

Understaffing issues negatively affects all parts of their business. However, Walmart has increased their minimum hourly rate with hopes to attract more committed employees, and retain better employees.
