Pros

-Benefits such as Employee Discount, Vacation hours and accommodations. -Flexible hours -Good Teamwork

Cons

-Skeleton crews across most stores self-limiting growth & causing distress to both coworkers/clients. -Training has become a rushed afterthought instead of investing in ensuring new & current hires are setup for success. -Poor Management lacking ability to push back on bad corporate initiatives & failure always is on frontline employees "not doing enough" leading to low morale. -Declining operational health due to outsourcing labor for services & delayed resolution of issues versus company's past before current CEO. -No clear mission statement for future of company creating fear of job security due to quarterly to bi-quarterly cuts that come out of nowhere.

Pros

* Great work life balance * You get to pick what you work on in most cases

Cons

* Was sexually harassed and they made me work with the person after filing a complaint * Super disorganized org, constantly reorganizing causing teams to be split up and people moved around every year or so * Lots of big company bureaucracy to get simple things like a laptop and permissions to code on them
