Pros

None as far as I could see. They are as misleading and unprofessional as they come. Avoid at all costs.

Cons

I was invited to apply in person for an engineering position that I was well qualified for. The receptionist told me that I needed to "get into the system" and directed me to a computer cubby to register my personal info. Upon completion of filling out my name, address, etc I was prompted to take a variety of personality and character tests that felt more oriented toward a 2nd grader than an educated professional. It took an hour or so to complain their tasks. At that time I was told the position they instructed me to come to their office to discuss was filled. I was then offered a $10/hr technician job on the spot. I respectfully declined and explained that I couldn't support my family on a salary like that, to which i was told "That's the going rate". I suggest anyone with any amount of self respect avoid this company like the plague.

Pros

Nothing I can think of

Cons

Terrible Job recruiters and they waste your time with non-important bull just to string you along. Made me take some assessment 4 times to give me an interview just to deny me in the end. Literally a scam company and I should be compensated for the amount of time I have had to put in just to get nothing. The company is scammy as well and pay you nickels and dimes but expect you to be time efficient and reliable.
