Pros

a job is a job - if you need a job take it but keep looking. Everyone working here now is looking.

Cons

Place is like a chop shop - fire you at will I have seen it numerous times, no warning, no review, no paper trail. Benefits very average but they think they are great. In my little over a year here - very disorganized place to work. Promises made to me have not been kept ...

Very Disorganized Place - Negative reviews are True Most Positives are Fake

Pros

Can't think of many. Most people are nice I guess but that is true about anywhere.

Cons

Feel like you can be let go at any time. Get conflicting orders/instruction from mngt. I don't think they know what they are doing. I am fairly senior and this in not my first rodeo. The review that said the place is a chop-shop is right on the mark. I was asked to put up a good review because the recruiters are having a hard time hiring folks - I refused to do so but I thought ok I will write one that is the truth. I have met some of the most two faced folks in my professional life here.

Better keep looking

Pros

I honestly cannot think of any reason why people should seek employment here or stay. It would be better to stay unemployed than deal with the vitriol.

Cons

I have never worked at someplace that was so Triple-D! Demeaning, disappointing, and detrimental. You are hired for a role on a contract. Management makes sure you "know your place". There is no room for advancement, since that wasn't your "role". And if they can find somebody cheaper, to improve their profit margin on your position, they will switch you out in a heartbeat.
