Pros

* The pay is great. It's not super-high, but it's far more than the national average wage, and if you know how to make your money work, you can easily live comfortably on what they pay. * The people are amazing. Most people are super knowledgeable, and the higher-ups are down to earth. They take suggestions seriously too. It's not every job where you can be the lowest rung on the ladder and get a meeting with the CEO (who takes what you say seriously) * Lunch. Our office Ninja kills it with the lunches every week <3 * Flexible hours. You usually get the shift you want. The scheduling manager is great about that stuff.

Cons

Egos. Working in a company like this, there are a LOT of egos that butt heads, especially on the support floor. Some people think they're gods, and quite frankly they have no idea what they're doing. ONLY downside to this company, and it's not really the company's fault.

Pros

Work as much or as little, any hours, choose your own assigments (they'd have to be approved, but had about 75% success rate).

Cons

Was purchased by Akamai and they fired all the writers except one

Pros

Free food and soda, unlimited pto, 2.5x overtime pay, education reimbursement, paid MacBook, paid relocation, housing assistance

Cons

Poor training, punished for leaving office at end of shift improperly without any lockdown procedure training. Reported security concern but fired for not reporting it properly, although it was reported to the security team. Promised promotion after 1 year and management ignored me following up on that. If you work there and leave a bad review on here they threaten your employment unless you remove the review. Mansgement call people sex offenders without proof.
