Business Outlook

Pros

Situated in the beautiful city of San Diego Reasonable pay, though not the best.

Cons

Everyone is always busy so its difficult to get help when you need it. Very difficult for someone new to get to speed as there is no formal training, knowledge sharing. Not a good place to learn if you are early in your career. There are company wide trainings for certain things - but it is very difficult to find time to attend those. Very aggressive, requiring long hours.
