Pros
Working near home is a positive thing about this company, some co-workers can become your friends. But watch your back, most of them carry knives. The knowledge of the employees is what runs the company as management themselves don't know much, and are simply there to rule by force and intimidation rather than using guidance, strong leadership or use a moral compass.
Cons
Worst experience of my life!!! This place is a joke! I stayed as long as I did because of the convenience for my family, and I also quickly realized the experience I was gaining was not easily applied to other jobs around, so it didn't translate and I had to take a pay cut to leave and start over. The place is run by very negative individuals (women) who are on major power trips, make everything personal and set out to find an individual's failures and exploit them, rather than properly train and reward success. You are rewarded from the main manager by tattle tailing, backstabbing and sabotaging fellow co-workers. This is a hostile work environment, beware that unless you are a part of the in crowd (the mean girls club) you will always be an outsider, and they will always look to set you up for failure. They were a salaried company for a few years and they completely took advantage of everyone by expecting 50+ hours a week, thinking that making you salary means they own you, but they don't compensate fairly for the time you put in. They do not offer medical benefits, and don't fairly compensate people with families to be able to afford anything on the Marketplace. When you want to take PTO it's hung over your head and often times denied, while the main managers take off time whenever they want, leaving the employees to carry the company as they do. They have a contract that would not be possible without their contractors but they treat them horribly like children, and not like the business partners they should be. They look for reasons to not pay contractors for their hard earned work, and have very unrealistic expectations. This could be a great place and it was better at one time, but these people will eat their young and have no qualms about it. I had a horrible experience at this place mainly at the hands of one person, most of the employees are unhappy and no one really cares you. You are simply a warm body, and they will move you around the company as just that: a warm body with no career growth in mind. This company claims to have unimpeachable ethics, and that is just not true at all on the inside, but what they want to appear as on the outside. If they truly had unimpeachable ethics they would start over and get rid of the people who shouldn't be there instead of letting them run the show. If the managers didn't constantly write reviews (dishonest ones) about this company they wouldn't have such a high rating- true story. Stay away!
