Pros

Great advancement opportunities if you put in the work and time. Not great for someone with a family and needs to be home every night before 6pm.

Cons

Have to work holidays and OT when needed. only 24 hours required to be notified of OT needs. During peak season, average associate works about 65 hours a week.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
