Pros

Benefits. Pay it's just okay. You get to do your job and go home, there's no worrying about it once the shift is over.

Cons

Pay could be better. When the job listing says that you need to be able to lift up to 50lbs, they mean that you have to do it all shift. It's excessively piggies demanding.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
