Pros

Lots of time off. Like, literally months per year if you use all your vacation, sick time, personal time, and get on the FMLA scam that 60% of the employees use. Sign on bonus. They can't make you work overtime and they are legitimately scared to ask.

Cons

The pay is a joke. You can make more at Costco.

Pros

There are some great people here who truly care about the work they do and supporting people.

Cons

The corporate structure, combined with many leaders who only manage the numbers and work to stay politically safe, make for a toxic environment.
