Pros

*Flexible work schedule, remote work from home.

Cons

Poor culture. High turnover. The culture is very up tight, and expectations are unrealistic. Budget does not match the responsibilities of the task at hand. Alot of negative energy, especially from management. Micro management at its finest. No room for advancement, no 401k match, no bonuses or merit increases. Whatever you come in at, you better plan to stay there.
