Pros

Honestly a good company, laid back no Supervisor's watching you. Pay and benefits are nice. Get your work done and be ready for the next day.

Cons

The actual good people always leave, there are people who are getting hired that shouldn't been hired in the first place and they continue to have those folks stick around when they don't even know the basics!!!! How hard is it to hire competent people especially the interns. Listen to us!!

Pros

Most of the time it’s laid back at work. No bosses hounding you all the time. Get your work done and you’re good.

Cons

Slackers seem to stay and the good ones continue to leave because of it. This company is slowly breaking the foundation away from under itself. They continue to let bad operators hang around ruining it for everyone.
