Pros

Compensation and benefits are competitive, and the company can provide valuable experience for those entering a startup environment.

Cons

Unfortunately, poor management overshadows these positives. There is a lack of transparency and clear direction from leadership, and people management skills are noticeably weak. Favoritism exists across departments, career progression is unclear, and the overall environment can be toxic.

Pros

Pay was good, simple and fast sale, Tons of inbound. Too good to be true…

Cons

Little training or organization. As a new hire was able to do really well in a short period of time but was part of mass lay off 6 days before Christmas. Layoff was handled terribly. Still waiting to get reimbursed for shipping cost for returning company equipment. I regret applying here and it really screwed up my life. The leadership is both incompetent and cruel.
