Pros

Total Compensation package is excellent, with wonderful short and long term bonus potential. Career opportunities abound as long as you are willing to relocate around the US. In addition, the benefits offered are industry leading. Folks who are entry-level can be compensated well above what they would receive in similar roles at other companies.

Cons

As with many tech or retail companies, the pressure is rather severe. Work/life balance is nonexistent above the customer service or sales rep level. Vacation time is really just working time outside the office. The employees, entry-level and otherwise, tend to be treated as disposable. Corrective action is delivered consistently, but for the most minor infractions for entry level employees. Many employees live in fear of being fired for missteps. In many cases, fear drives achievement, not passion.

Pros

We have good benefits and there is alot of opportunity to become better if you apply yourself. The company is nationwide now so you can move if that what you want to do. There is plenty of opportunity to move around every two or three years even if you stay in one city.

Cons

Its a large slow moving beast that does thing the way we do them cause that's how its always been done. So much information is passed away on things but noone seems to know why or how all the information is being used.
