Pros

There are alot of great people that you work with on a daily basis. The actual line workers in operations share a bond because of what they deal with on a daily basis.

Cons

Those individuals doing the actual jobs are amazing people. The problem is there are only so many "doers" There are only so many of these individuals and the finger pointers of upper management have been using them up until the majority of the good ones leave. Compensation is horrible and so are the hours. Management does not recognized strong talent and try to keep in promote within.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
