Pros

Excellent pay, high energy and fast paced environment.

Cons

You will never have a work life balance here. They only care about the bottom line and will make money at all costs. Unethical and borderline illegal business practices. Very clickish, and senior meetings are rude, disrespectful and personally nasty.

Pros

Only thing going for this company is great health Benefits or should I say what is left of the benefits due to cut backs.

Cons

If you expect to get recognition or even a hello from your supervisor do not work here. You are a Robot to them and its all about production. They are working you 7 days a week! with no overtime pay. The company is an at will employer and they can do what they want with their salary paid staff according to dept. of Labor including taking away lunch time and breaks. its hard to take care of sick people in need when you yourself are in poor health due to stress and bullying.
