Pros

Some great coworkers. They pay overtime, as is required by California state law, which not all employers do. Discounted sodas.

Cons

Where to start? There is so much red tape that in any given week you you may have 4 hours of productive work if you're lucky. Technically speaking they are way behind the times, and have shown no desire to upgrade their technologies. An extremely political place. Dog eat dog corporate culture. In short, there's a good chance to you will be miserable working here.

Pros

The people are nice to talk to.

Cons

You take 35+ calls back to back all day. You’re expected to be triple skilled which which is a lie. It’s always a lie, and you’ll always be gaining more skills, but with no greater pay. You also have to say when you’re going to the bathroom. Every single part of your day is tracked and you will be micromanaged and you have to text a group chat every time you get up from your computer even for scheduled lunch and breaks.
