Pros

Salary is pretty good. Some people I work with are great. Many are not! Good benefits. I'd recommend this job to an entry level worker because the hrs and pay is good.

Cons

Leaders do not walk the talk. I have never worked in a business with so much drama. It's exhausting. The workload in salaried positions is unreasonable.

Pros

recently added options for work from home which is very useful, 6% matching on 401k which is unusual. onsite wellness and flu shots which is very cool. there's even a pilates/exercise room that is in construction right now and a nintendo gaming station in the works. you can also shift your hours around for better work time flexibility.

Cons

Organization overall is too risk adverse.
