Pros

You go home after 8 hours, Scotts Valley is a nice location to work

Cons

When you can make more working at the car wash, then in production, there's a problem. High turnover is a result of the low wages. When you can make 40% move by driving another 40 minutes to work in San Jose, you end up doing it. Pay/Benefits/Quality of Co-works are much better. I heard we had a new CEO, other than the company meetings, noone ever sees him.
