Lots of hours available, that it

Cons

Poor working conditions, dangerous with people moving around with cages too fast, back breaking work, can be asked to travel to different sites at short notice. Training at night even if you don't want to work nights. High turnover of staff.

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Cons

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
