Pros

People, hybrid, time off, retirement plans, benefits

Cons

People, managers, pay. The pay is lack luster, especially for the area. If you live in LA with this pay you are living check to check with minimal to no life. Direction from managers and directors is inconsistent. Not much room or opportunity for growth and advancement. Most moves are Lateral.
