Pros

Low job stress levels. Management knows how to sell stuff. No smart people confusing you with complicated scientific information. If you you like dull, you'll love TFS!

Cons

Very dull, especially for R&D. No commitment to innovation; TFS would rather just buy a new company instead of developing something in house. High turnover rate, especially for ambitious technical personnel.

Pros

Great for entry level work, work was manageable; employee to manager was a good ratio; individual work space; uniform job descriptions

Cons

felt like a factory at times; company was too young, not much professionalism; though work was manageable, felt like you could never catch up; area companies had better pay
