Pros

The money, the benefits are good just don’t work the night shift if you think you’re going to school during the day are you may end up getting roughly 5 hours of sleep at best.

Cons

They expect you to keep the bathroom break under 10 minutes even though you operate machinery, so chances are once you determine, you do have to go to the bathroom, to drive and park and get to the bathroom. Will probably take 2 - 3 minutes and getting back to your workstation takes about the same amount of time so good luck.

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.
