Pros

Good work environment with good associates. The company truly cares about who is hired and keeping them for a career, not just a temporary job.

Cons

It's a corporate company, so there are some tedious things that feel distracting but ultimately are meant to be helpful for growth.

Pros

Good benefits if you are single, they offer you all the tools you need to do your job

Cons

The managers putting pressure/terrorizing you to be 100% to 120% efficient even when there is not enough work, but they don't care, all they care is themselves and getting their bonuses if we become more efficient. it;'s like punching you in the face for doing great job, not to mention there is a lot of backstabbing, disrespectful behaviors and no transparency coming from management.

Pros

Great employees, good benefits, lots of training, fast growing company that is stable and strong

Cons

Low starting salary for the amount of work that is expected of a mid-level manager. When you do something well, they say "Great job!" and give you even more responsibilities to handle
