Business Outlook

Pros

Had first interview at college campus. After two weeks they contacted me if I wanted a second interview and I accepted, They payed for my meals and gas money to drive to where the second interview was going to be held. If you get a second interview you are pretty much in. You wil get very good training and experience.

Cons

Your social life will be over, was working 12-15 hour shifts. If you get at least 6 hours of sleep a day you will be lucky. Was working an 11-3 rotation. 11 days on 3 days off. If you are looking for a nice office job this is definatly not for you.

Great career booster or place to come to retire

Technology professional

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-My advise: come in, get a booster for career then leave for a job that would pay 150% more. Or, if you are senior to your career, this is a great place to come and retire. -Great career booster and resume material. -Great retirement plans. -No employee ever gets fired, even if he/she is horrendous at what he/she does.

Cons

-Extremely high turnover. As soon as you build a relationship, that person quits for a better job. -Unhappy place to work at. Everyone seems so depressed/ unmotivated. -Low pay, almost zero chance of advancement. -No worklife balance. Though never spoken, working evenings and weekends are almost expected and is a common practice.
